Such cases do exist. The libibverbs package requires a libibverbs-driver in order to
run. Which driver you want depends on hardware, and we don't normally install all of
them. A user who bought the hardware in question could probably suss out which package
they need to satisfy the dependency if they were asked.
You just made the case for debconf
