The question is what should be the default behaviour. At least in the
minimal installation the default should be "No", don't install Recommends.
It was a default Debian policy not so long ago. It was a good policy. Now
the default Recommends policy in Debian ("Yes") is very often misused to
install really unneeded stuff.
