IMO, ZConfig is very useful in some specific cases, especially ZODB and logging

It was separate a long time ago. It's been part of the ZODB distribution
for a long time until recently.
It makes sense for it to be optional, as it's of no interest to people who
use relstorage.
More importantly, it's more complicated than any other part of ZODB and it
makes a lot of sense for ZODB development to be unburdened of it.
