"dnf list autoremove" gives *nothing* while "dnf remove wget" as one of 
many samples could be removed without any deps - so i guess that's just 
working with the yumdb/dnfdb and is in *no way* compareable with 
"package-cleanup --leaves --all"

"package-cleanup --leaves --all" for years now works perfectly, lists 
*any* package which could be unnstalled and so takes care in combination 
with own metapackages listing wanted programs as Requires to keep 
systems *absolutely* clean
