For the purposes of this proposal, your packages still need to BuildRequires: make.  I don't want to depend on this kind of indirect dependency to keep things working, because it can be fragile.

So instead I'm supposed to somehow know what tools the tools
that I use choose to invoke under the covers? Where does that
insanity end exactly? Do I have to require gas because gcc
will use it to assemble the code it generates?


No, in that case gcc needs to Require: gas, because it is a run-time
dependency of that package.

CMake will still work if make is not installed.  Packages that use
cmake + Ninja should require those packages, and packages that use
cmake + make should require those packages too.
