Since we are building successfully, base-devel is not needed, also, since this is useful only for compiling, it shouldn't be included

That's perfectly correct, except that some packages on AUR that are useful for astronomy don't check that base-devel is installed, and the packages fail during compilation with a nice “cannot find the fakeroot binary” error. I imagine that those who created this type of PKGBUILD think that base-devel is one of the mandatory packages for installation. Might as well leave it as default to avoid future problems, don't you think?
