It looks like systemd scripts often (always?) get installed, regardless

Because they are tiny so impact of them is negligible. On the other hand,
if you don't have them and want to switch to systemd, you would end up
having to recompile half of world just to get the service files.
As long the ebuild doesn't have a USE flag "systemd" - may be. If the (local) USE flag is for service files only, it could may be considered as overhead. But if there is a USE flag "system" - doesn't have the package to be rebuild somehow or other?

Why would they? Is this a policy?

AFAIK, yes.
