AFAIK the original intent was that if you call "/etc/init.d/foo start" this would redirect to "systemctl start" which would run "Exec=/etc/init.d/foo start" in the generated unit which must not do that same redirection again. This should be sufficiently covered by the [ $PPID -ne 1 ] test, though. git archeology shows that commit c04d0f71 introduced the script and both the SKIP_REDIRECT and the [ $PPID -ne 1 ] were already present, though. So, I can't think of a good reason to set this either, thanks for dropping it from master.
