AFAIK the dependecy is there in this case, because pulseaudio-bluetooth
is a module for pulseaudio. Therefore it is built using that specific
version of pulseaudio, which is why you need this dependency for
pulseaudio-bluetooth to work properly.
Guess due to Arch being rolling release this could be skipped, but I
have not tried that yet ;-)
Maybe less error prone?

Best,
David
