Such as? Which other "systemd capability" besides the init system part exposes an API to general user-space applications? The only one I can think of is logind, for which an alternative implementation (elogind) exists.

Logging, login, network configuration, and more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd#Ancillary_components

These are not APIs, they are UIs. They will not cause vendor lock-in for general user-space applications.
