Yes, Wine is broken on your app because you intentionally told your
system to not have a component required specifically for your app.  Wine
can work just fine without it, it's just that Wine's animated cursor
features are disabled, which are only needed on some apps (most of which
don't use animated cursors).

You are misunderstanding no-install-recommends.  Policy says recommends
is for packages that are not _strictly_ required, as in the program can
possibly run without them.  Any package which adds expected but not
critical functionality (such as animated cursors working) thus falls
under recommends.  Recommends is not Suggests.

There's a reason we make it default, and have for years now.  If you
manually disable it, then you need to also manually make sure you have
what you need for the optional features you want in every app you have.
