If you want the lifetime of the D-Bus session bus `dbus-daemon --session`
to be the same as a single graphical login session, either don't configure
it with --enable-user-session, or don't install its systemd user units
(packaged separately as dbus-user-session in Debian and its derivatives).

The scope of the D-Bus session bus is an OS integrator choice. It can
either be the same as a single login session, or the same as `systemd
--user`, but it cannot be both.

Of course, if its scope is the same as a single login session, then you
can't use it to communicate with `systemd --user` or use it from user
services, because they would be outside its scope.

systemd user services are not part of a particular login session. They
exist outside all login sessions (look at systemd-cgls).

If you configure dbus with --enable-user-session, then D-Bus session
services are not part of a particular login session either.

It's your choice - but you can't have it both ways. The dbus-daemon
can't be both inside a login session, and shared between login sessions.
