I believe I read somewhere that your app can be booted from the app store if you require permissions that are not needed for core functionality. E.g. a navigation app is useless without GPS permission and is okay, but a Maps app do not specifically require GPS permission as it can be used to view maps. So to me, it seems Google is requiring permissions that are not strictly necessary for using the app.
