Pedantically speaking, they should not be there, but they don't
do much harm (but to bloat the rpmdata bases) -- which is one
reason why there is no requirement to filter them out.
I think the problem, is that neither specifies what "they" are.
IMHO, Provides should stay and Requires go.
Agreed, IMO, "self-provided requires" should go, everything else should
stay.
Unfortunately, rpm's filtering doesn't do so and manually adding filters
is more error-prone than it helps.
