Thank you.

Pipeline is dependent on them, or they are dependent on Pipeline? If the
former, I should be able to delete Pipeline. If the latter, that is
simply incoherent design (IMHO).

I contend that, if I'm not using Pipeline, I shouldn't have to have any
Pipeline plugins installed. I know that, in earlier installations, I had
these plugins installed without any Pipeline plugins (which may not have
existed then). If there are common features that are used by nearly all
plugins, they should be extracted into a separate plugin or moved into
Jenkins proper. The plugin world should not become like the Windoze
DLL-hell.
