Wrong grep pattern :-/
Try

apt-config dump | grep -i APT::AutoRemove::

For one of my machines that gives

$ apt-config dump | grep -i APT::AutoRemove::
APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant "true";
APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant "true";

meaning that automatically installed packages that have only a Suggests:
or Recommends: dependency left, i.e. no Depends: or Pre-Depends:, will
be removed. Looks like you have something similar in which cause you
should probably run

apt-mark manual <packages>

with a list of <packages> you definitely want to keep.

Hope this helps,
