We will likely impliment this as systemd mount unit, meaning if people disable it then they will be able to return to the old behaviour.
In general fstab is still the preferred method for that, see systemd.mount(8). Why deviate from that? I know there is a mount unit file somewhere in the system.
Because fstab is a big, static file hardly changeable by a distribution later. Many things (all the /proc, /sys, /dev, ...) stuff is meanwhile moved out of fstab to allow distributions to react on changed requirements. And even systemd it self is perfering tmp.mount for this and not /etc/fstab. In general: system specific things belongs to /etc/fstab, distribution specific management things belong into something which is easy update- and adjustable, like a systemd unit.
