I think this was mostly done because the rpm split originally done was to separate out parts that you need when booting systemd in a container from those which you do not need there. udev/sd-boot is useless in a container, hence it was split out, and was turned into a seperate new rpm, named after one of the most prominent components. I am not involved in systemd packaging anymore, but I am sure if you make your case on rhbz Zbigniew or so will consider your case.
