When installing with recommends enabled, these patterns are always pulled in with x11 (unless locks are used): * x11_opt * x11_opt -> enhanced_base * x11_opt -> enhanced_base -> apparmor * x11_opt -> enhanced_base -> enhanced_base_opt * x11_opt -> enhanced_base -> sw_management * x11_opt -> enhanced_base -> yast2_basis * x11_opt -> fonts * x11_opt -> fonts -> fonts_opt ... and over Supplements which also pulls in other patterns. That makes it highly impractical to have a user-friendly option to not install "everything and the kitchen sink" without either locking the pattern metapackages (which nobody knows about and they really shouldn't need to) or disabling recommends (which breaks stuff severely). This needs to be fixed by either removing quite a few of those cross-pattern recommends or changing the way patterns are managed in yast (deselection adds a lock).
