systemd-time-wait-sync.service invokes /lib/systemd/systemd-time-wait-sync do to the actual wait, which is an ELF binary. While this is a valid approach to do this, an interested used will now need to download the systemd souces, unpack them, search for the source for the binary just to find out what this service actually does. To adapt it to wait for something else, one needs to whack out a compiler. IMO, this is a classic case of "doing this scripted is way easier and more flexible". Please consider for the future.
