Answer 1

Jandex and Classmate are not required for the main Hibernate functionality. They are required however for the metadata generation (reference). In order to not break things for people that don't use the metadata generation they added the dependencies as test dependencies. If you're using the metadata generation you will need to obtain those dependencies.
