I suspect that in your case you simply have ports installed from before the 'requested' flag was tracked by MacPorts (that's certainly behavior I've seen and is the main reason why I haven't personally used the 'requested' flag for anything).

I hate to think how bloated High Sierra is going to be; this thing is already maxed out at 4GB memory, and I simply cannot afford a new one.
