Thank you so much for looking Katrin. The pref will work with at least 1
installed backend, and the backend must provide the
provides_backend_availability_check capability and implement the
availability_check_info method, that's correct.

Examples can be found here:
https://github.com/PTFS-Europe/koha-ill-libkey-lending-tool/blob/main/Koha/Plugin/Com/PTFSEurope/IncDocs.pm#L142
https://github.com/PTFS-Europe/koha-ill-reprintsdesk/blob/pluginify%2B%2B/Koha/Plugin/Com/PTFSEurope/ReprintsDesk.pm#L225

If only one supporting backend is installed, and the syspref is enabled with
that single backend, the automatic backend screen will first check that
backend, recommend it if the document being queried is available in it, or
default to Standard otherwise, effectivelly making the choice for the Staff
member of which backend should be used a particular ILL request.
