I don't install recommends automatically but that doesn't keep me from
installing them manually ;-P

If you don't like that, chromium --no-sandbox should work as the warning

I see that chromium-sandbox doesn't have a Depends: on chromium. That
may be more of an issue as that package is completely useless by itself,
AFAICS at least.

BTW, the details on making it a Recommends: are in

Hope this helps,
