For better or worse redhat-rpm-config has Requires on a whole bunch of
these *-srpm-macros packages:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/blob/rawhide/f/redhat-rpm-config.spec#_94

AIUI that is how the buildroot gets populated.

Note that most of these packages are really tiny.  Probably their
license files & other metadata are multiples of the size of their
other content.
