Which sounds like a contrived argument, but really I really was just trying to figure out how it should be done.
I already opened a pull request to clarify this, I have to redo it.
OK, I now see where I made this more confusing.
Let me clarify:
- hicolor-icon-theme "acts" like a filesystem package
- except you need to Require it
Many other packages work like this (e.g. python-jupyter-filesystem, python3-jaraco).
No, I was confused from the start, all the discussion here is making it more clear. Here is the pull request attempting to word the guidelines better:

Random idea: Let's have a database of those and generate the requirement on them automatically?
I might take a look at some point, for fun mainly.
