As per Debian Policy Manual, "The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of functionality.", while "the Recommends field should list packages that would be found together with this one in all but unusual installations.". It seems clear to me that these packages should be moved to the Recommends field.
