At the moment the way I see it, and the way that probably reflects the realities at the moment is something that is marked as recommends in most cases is something that is not essential but that the packager feels will make life better for most users.
What all the various individual packagers at openSUSE "feel" cannot lead to RPM dependencies that behave consistently for our end-users.
If we give them enough guidelines and info on how to make these decisions it probably can.
Even if that was possible, then only one single use case (the default) could be hardcocded via RPM dependencies, see my reasoning in https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-02/msg00924.html As far as I see it is currently not possible for a user to easily get a system installed that provides for example - all end everything that is useful to run a "web server" - the usual stuff for normal "printing" - only what is essential for "e-mail" without maunally specifying all individual RPM packages. I think this results all those issues when some users "feel" they need more in this area but less in that are while other users "feel" the opposite (less in this area but more in that area).
