An egg should only *depend* on setuptools if it uses things like pkg_resources (e.g. for namespace packages).
But there's no need to depend on setuptools for namespace packages generally; that's specific to namespace packages in the presence of zip_safe eggs. This is where I get (somewhat) antsy.
That setuptools are required for *building* an egg goes without question.
That I've never objected to; I don't want to duplicate that functionality. -Fred -- Fred L.
