Maybe if the hamsters spin fast enough in their wheels,
these supplies won't be required? :)

The reason I hesitated to mark them as required,
is because the HW engineer told us that on our board
they were connected to a power line that is shared
between several functional blocks.

I suppose that's not a reason?

Required means "device doesn't work if they're not connected" ?
