I never suggested that.

My question still is, *why* do we need a third one?

My suggestion is
foo_bus_initialize() -> bus_initialize() -> object_initialize()
and
foo_bus_new() -> bus_new() -> object_new().
Code sharing can be done static-qbus_realize()-style (call that
qbus_init if you like but don't expose this detail).
