That's easy to say in theory, but extremely difficult to test in practice,
since order is non-deterministic and therefore you may not notice a
missing requires unless you get lucky, even in test.  You need multiple
iterations in test to probabilistically find all missing requires, which
quickly becomes more trouble than it's worth when the only drawback is
requiring multiple Puppet runs.

We too consider this to be a bug, but it's a low-priority bug that we fix
when we notice it, which can take a while.
