Yes. I argued for years (cf https://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2017/03/22/ from seven (!!) years ago) and CRAN is slowly moving away from that implicit 'always there' guarantee to prefering explicit enumerations -- and now even tests via the NoSuggests flavour. As Uwe stated in this thread, having the vignette dependencies both in Suggests as well as in the VignetteHeader should do. And it is the Right Thing (TM) to do.
