No, this is a must requirement in Policy 4.2:

If build-time dependencies are specified, it must be possible to build the package and produce working binaries on a system with only essential and build-essential packages installed and also those required to satisfy the build-time relationships (including any implied relationships).

And it's also in the release policy for bookworm:

     Packages must list any packages they require to build beyond those
     that are "build-essential" in the appropriate Build-Depends: fields.
     Ref: 4.2

In fact, the purpose of such list of RC issues is precisely to
avoid useless discussions like this one. If an item is in the list,
then it's RC by definition.

Thanks.
