Run an update *one* time at shutdown – systemd-run?

I've got a few things that I don't want to update while my graphical session is running, but would be happy to have them updated on shutdown (after my graphical session ended, while network is still up), *once*. So, I don't want to write a service file, enable it, and then have it run at *every* shutdown.
Now, I thought, OK,
systemd-run
to the rescue:
systemd-run \
--property=Type=oneshot \
--property=DefaultDependencies=no \
--property=Requires=network.service \
--property=WantedBy=shutdown.target \
/usr/bin/dnf5 update -y package1 packge2…
But that fails with
Failed to start transient service unit: Dependency type WantedBy may not be created transiently.
Is there another way to this?
