It *says* it "recommends" it.  It behaves as though it requires it.  I
perceive no functional difference between "recommends" and "requires".

It took weeks for me to discover that.  It seemed reasonable to me to
expect a CDROM not to contain packages which depend on stuff not on the
CDROM.  It does not seem reasonable to me that anything in "stable" should
depend on anything in "unstable".
