I understand, but that leaves the user no way to clean the system, and the system will build up more and more junk / orphaned dependencies with every installed /uninstalled package.

It's one thing that the user "doesn't have to worry" about cleaning his computer, and an entirely different one that he doesn't even get the option to do so.

Back to the profiles on the profile page. Alright, so we don't want them to "have to" clean the system. So we don't want them some automatically installed package and be unable to retrieve it.

A "Clean the system", "Remove unneeded programs" or similar entry in the "System" menu certainly wouldn't harm them or force them to worry about anything, they can safely ignore it. And at the same time, PK would let users like me keep our systems clean. Would that be an acceptable alternative?
