I don't agree; the package should not be bloated. You don't need all of the
packages to use SciTools. Also one must remember that there are still people
using dialup connections, for whom downloading lots and lots of extra stuff is
a problem.

However, you might want to add a note about the extras metapackage to the
%description, e.g. "For full functionality you may want to install the
scitools-extras package."
