dbus-session-bus-common is the configuration of the well-known session
bus as provided by dbus, the reference implementation of D-Bus.

You appear to be using dbus-broker, a reimplementation of D-Bus, which
borrows the configuration of the well-known buses from dbus.

If dbus-broker considers something to be deprecated, of course that's up
to the maintainers of dbus-broker; but dbus takes backwards compatibility
seriously, and so does not configure the session bus to forbid legacy
eavesdropping (even though legacy eavesdropping was a bad design and
has been superseded by Monitoring).
