manpages-utils is a recently created binary package:
  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/manpages/-/commit/ed8d2c11

It inherits the manpages Source Priority of standard.

By my interpretation of Debian Policy 2.5 Priorities:
  https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-priorities
manpages-utils should be optional.

Thank you!
