dbus creates messagebus group and user with ID above 500

In the dbus portfile I find:
pre-activate {
addgroup messagebus
adduser messagebus gid=[existsgroup messagebus]
realname=Message\ Bus
}
If dbus has to create a user (is it required?), it should find a number
below 500 for system users.
Users above 500 are reserved for those pesky real human users.
Any ill effects from deleting the user/group?
