There's rarely a super clear-cut way of deciding whether an option
should be added, or the dependency be handled implicitly/automatically.
But in this particular case, it seems relatively obvious to me. In
addition, the systemd integration is mostly relevant if you use systemd
as your init system, in which case systemd will anyway already be
enabled, and therefore the systemd support in sway will be
automagically enabled.
