The reason it is named with (includes Runtime) is to create an expectation that

likely wonder if they had to also check the Runtime.
However, as you've noticed, it "just works" - whether or not the user checks
UIMA Runtime, so in some sense, it doesn't really matter - other than to reduce
some potential uncertainty in some users. I guess I'd like to keep it as it is,
for that reason.
This is not an eclipse convention and I wonder if this really reduces
uncertainty.
I went to this site with the intention to install both the Runtime and
Tools plugins, now it made
me wonder for a moment if the Tools in some way include a different
Runtime than the one above.
I then tried both and the dependencies on the next page made it clear to
me that it simply
means that Tools has a dependency on Runtime which is automatically
resolved for me,
since that is just expected behavior such a note can also be confusing.
