puppet-agent isn't a 'thing' for puppet 3.7.4, and the requirement seems unnecessary, especially for a package who's purpose is to install things.

The 1.16 installer requires Puppet 4.x and for RPM based distros only the AIO packages are supported. This works as designed.
I agree that the Release Notes are not very clear about this, but we'll handle that in https://github.com/theforeman/theforeman.org/issues/903, where I just added that point.

(I cannot seem to add a note here, perhaps this is how?)
Is puppet 3.x support being dropped for foreman 1.16, or just foreman-installer 1.16?

Yes, proxy and core itself do still support older versions. Please also note that recent versions of our theforeman puppet modules do require Puppet 4.x.
