You're the one that selected minimal, and nothing else. ;) As Rob pointed out, "minimal" is a changing concept. With SLES15 that happened. The minimal pattern is intended to be used by people who want a truly small footprint that they can add to and get what they want, with the least amount of unwanted packages. Think embedded systems. I can't say I like the way SLES15 (and now SLES15 SP1) is packaged, but I didn't have any say over that. (Big surprise.)
