I'm not agree with this "security through obscurity" principle.
However the major problem is the documentation of
"--install-recommends" and "--no-install-recommends", that obviously
care users.
This lack is unacceptable for apt, one of the most important part of
Debian.
Indeed, you/they can fix this bug in about 5 minutes: you/they have
only to add 2 little sentences in the man.
I remain available to write that part if you/they can't.
