As far as I can tell cwltool is typically not installed on fairly
minimal systems (besides possibly debci machines or so).  Usually there
are a bunch of bioinformatics tools installed that are not really small.

So as far as I can see the strong dependency is no practical
disadvantage for the user.

Thanks for your comments anyway
