I think this distinction is not so easily made on a general level.
I'd say an argument for how you can (should?) think about this
is the following abstraction:
There are two packages, A and B.
A's DESCRIPTION has 'Enhances: B'.
When B is there, A provides extra features.
In one sense, this always enhances B ("enhance" in the usual
English meaning), since B's area of application has been
enlarged by code in A.
