True. And ttf-mscorefonts-installer is a installer package to install
non-free fonts. thus it is in contrib. Thus you can't just recommend
it hard anyway per debian policyi 2.2.1.
--- snip ---
In addition, the packages in main
* must not require a package outside of main for compilation or execution
(thus, the package must not declare a "Depends", "Recommends", or
"Build-Depends" relationship on a non-main package),
--- snip ---
That's the reason of the alternative.
It's even questionable whether I am allowed to recommend it as second
second alternative, but I've choosen to just do it unless someone complains
about it.

Thus + wontfix (there's no cantfix)
