As you mentioned, the Yocto Project does support building and configuring systems with either of the two init frameworks. Poky, which is the reference distribution that comes with Yocto, uses SysVinit by default. There's nothing bad with systemd support in Yocto. It perfectly works and many of us are successfully building their custom distributions (or simply Poky derivatives) with systemd. Just follow instructions at [1] to select your preferred init system. I'm not aware of any plan to switch default init system for Poky to systemd. This probably more for historical than technical reasons as of today.
