As explained in the commit changelog, most of these dependencies are either useless, or indirect. It doesn't hurt for people managing dependencies manually, with pip for instance, but it does for linux distribution package maintainers, where those dependencies triggers automatic dependencies that would in turn need useless additional package creation in order to get satisfied.
