It recommends d-bus, and recommends are installed by default. See
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html .
systemd works fine without dbus, just some things (logind, nspawn,
calling CLI tools as non-root) won't work. But this does make sense on
small installations, chroots, etc. So IMO this works as designed.

Title:
systemd does not depend on dbus
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
systemd has no dependency to dbus.
I disagree it should only be recommended.
I.e. running ubuntu in systemd-nspawn.
machinectl poweroff/login ...
systemctl -M
are not going to work.
