If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Did You Know

An hiding an never completed feature

While working on this project, it appears that Magento already has an attribute with code "minimal_price".
This attribute exists in Magento since forever. It's actually a system attribute which is not visible through the admin panel.
There is also a few method that refers to this attribute, such as:

This attribute and methods are not used in the Commerce edition neither.
There is also some trace there: \Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Export\Product:

This suggests that minimal_price is mapped as "Minimum Advertised Price" (MAP). MAP policies are legal documents brands use to define the lowest legally possible advertised price for a product. It does set the minimum, some penalties may be applied if a seller violates the MAP.

This module updates and reuse this existing attribute in order to give it a true usage.

Price Indexer, to be or not to be?

Also, while investigating a bug where the minimal price value was not handled in the PDP nor PLP. It seems that the catalog_product_index_price is not used to render and display the final prices.
When inspecting the query logs, it seems that even if the indexer is loaded and applied to the product list, when the template render the prices, the following method is used \Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\ListProduct::getProductPrice. This method calls Magento\Framework\Pricing\Render::render which render a price by code. The engine will proceed with Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\FinalPrice and Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\BasePrice. The rendering is finally delegated to Magento\CatalogRule\Pricing\Price\CatalogRulePrice which loads any active catalog rules.

The performance struggles comes when you have a lot of active catalog rule loaded every team for each items on the page.
