It's important if the binary specified by the init= boot option is not systemd otherwise it confuses systemctl that incorrectly assumes that systemd is still the init system due to the presence of /run/systemd/system. Also some tools might also check the presence of /run/systemd/private to test if systemd is running as pid1.
