   Wouldn't the "systemd" USE flag be the appropriate one to key on?
The description in /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc says...

systemd - Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and features like
socket activation or session tracking

Surely, units files qualify as "systemd-specific features".

People keep saying disk space is not an issue but it is on embedded systems. Even 4k or one i-node. So the choice to not install unit files is important. I'm sympathetic to the idea of reducing use flags and I would really not like to see USE="openrc" or "systemd" everywhere. Without having tested, it does seem that INSTALL_MASK is sufficient. I recommend going that route and documenting it.
