But:

Package: systemd-standalone-sysusers
Description: standalone sysusers binary for use in non-systemd systems
  Standalone sysusers binary with minimal dependencies.
  This package conflicts with the main systemd package and is meant for use in
  non-systemd systems.

Is this actually a problem for any reason other than you having removed 
everything matching "systemd*"?  As indicated, this particular package 
should be fine even if you're running sysvinit.

An alternative, if you so wish, is to install the opensysusers package 
instead.  openssh-server's dependencies allow that (since it Provides: 
systemd-sysusers).
