That's not correct. It has been adopted by all major distros due to ease of use and maintaibility of unit files. That is very clear from nearly all mailing list discussions.
Also, people can and do use gnome3 without systemd. (https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNOME/GNOME_Without_systemd https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNOME/GNOME_Without_systemd).

Or rather, because unit files work the same across all systemd-using distros, they can actually be upstreamed to the application developers and distros just package them, which is a huge time-saver compared to having to maintain init scripts for hundreds of daemons.
