Note that I proposed to remove auto-starting session completely, which
is in odds to what you propose below.

IMHO, it might be enough to adjust org-babel-R-associate-session as the
following
(defun org-babel-R-associate-session (session)
"Associate R code buffer with an R session.
Make SESSION be the inferior ESS process associated with the
current code buffer."
(setq ess-local-process-name
(process-name (get-buffer-process session)))
(when ess-local-process-name (ess-make-buffer-current))
(setq-local ess-gen-proc-buffer-name-function (lambda (_) session)))
>From the user point of view, it should then make no difference.
If we follow the advice from
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-R.html,
Use ESS to step through evaluation line-by-line
- Use C-c ' to visit the edit buffer for your code block
- Use ess-eval-line-and-step to evaluate each line in turn
ess-eval-line-and-step should still work regardless whether ESS session
is already initiated or not before opening Org Src buffer.
