[yocto] should a BSP layer *really* ever need additional layers to be functional?

  perusing current BSP Guide:

"Some BSPs require additional layers on top of the BSP's root layer in
order to be functional. For these cases, you also need to add those
layers to the BBLAYERS variable in order to build the BSP."

  really? should a properly-designed BSP layer need additional layers
to simply boot a simple image (say, core-image-minimal) to the command
line?

  i always thought that using nothing more than a BSP layer (plus, of
course, the underlying OE layers) should allow you to get to the
command line. is that not true?
