Here's how I see things (which I believe is close if not identical to how it works on Debian): Recommended = default on. Suggested = default off. The user can customize it to have both on or both off. And in both cases, removing a package with only a soft dep should not remove the dependent package (except if an option to treat them as hard deps is set).
