Recommended is not the same as Optional.

In a few cases (e.g. at least one of the ffmpeg dependencies) an
editor thought that the benefits of a particular dependency meant it
ought to be recommended.

More generally, Recommended means that the package expects it to be
present, but it can be worked around - for configure scripts,
typically a --disable option.  Eventually you might wish to do
without some recommended dependencies.  But at first it's easier to
regard Recommended as Required.
