I'm a bit confused now.

Looking at
https://sources.debian.org/src/sddm/0.14.0-4+deb9u1/services/sddm.service.in/
it already has

Conflicts=getty@tty1.service
After=getty@tty1.service

So what exactly does your patch change?

If it is the addition of

Conflicts=getty@tty7.service
After=getty@tty7.service

why would that be necessary? There is no getty by default on tty7, so
this appears to be no-op change unless you explicitly configured your
system to start a getty on tty7.
