I'd like to know why this:

Wants to do all of this (quoted below), it's a virtual system destruct
for the want of removing some codecs. What harebrained logic is
involved in working this out? It's not competent computer coding by
any stretch of the imagination.
I'd say that nearly ALL of those things would have been installed on
the system before I'd installed those gstreamer things, so they're
clearly NOT "dependent" on them.
As to why I want to remove them, I'm trying to narrow down why playing
some video files *sometimes* crash my system hard. And I say
"sometimes" because at other times the same video file will play
without any problems.
I didn't notice this originally, but you're still on F36 and expecting
help with it?? Maybe you should try using something current instead of
trying to track down issues in discontinued software.
In F40, this dependency chain doesn't exist:
# dnf remove gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free
gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-extras gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld
--noautoremove
No match for argument: gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-extras
Dependencies resolved.

gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld
Removing dependent packages:

I don't have the "extras" package installed, but the only dependency for
that is "shotcut".
