I think they are necessary - if the service is running then audio will
be routed through pipewire, and if that is the case then wpctl is needed
to control the routes and volume, both essential features of an audio
server.
The pw-* utilities are mostly for recording/playback, which I think is
also important but perhaps not essential.
