I doubt this will ever actually become an issue, but the way that it is worded could open the doors to some debates.

I would see a STEP without a Bill of Materials as incomplete.
You would also need some sort of Drawing with notes or Assembly procedure. How would I know from a STEP if something is a press fit for example?
