OK. Is that dependency on dtc something new? Or was it there already
for certain sims and not others?

Dependency requirements like these should be discussed on a
case-per-case basis, I think. And the answers to the questions
you ask above (can it be made optional, what functionality gets
lost, etc) definitely influence the decision.
