You got that backwards. You listed the things that gtk3 has as a Recommends:
Try `dnf repoquery --whatrecommends gtk3`
java-11-openjdk-1:11.0.6.10-0.fc32.x86_64
java-11-openjdk-slowdebug-1:11.0.6.10-0.fc32.x86_64
java-latest-openjdk-1:13.0.2.8-1.rolling.fc32.x86_64
java-latest-openjdk-slowdebug-1:13.0.2.8-1.rolling.fc32.x86_64
solaar-0:1.0.2-0.1.rc1.20200322git563ef0d.fc32.noarch
That said, I think gtk3 is always part of the standard installation
because it's needed by Anaconda.
The GUI anaconda requirements should be split into anaconda-gui and
that shouldn't be part of a minimal install. In fact I don't think
anaconda should be pulled into an @core install at all, offhand.
