No, if packages still "require" another package, stating that the
other package is "obsolete" is a lie.  It would be "deprecated" and
not "obsolete".  Obsolete implies not used.

setup-xx.exe recognize "obsolete", it does not recognize "deprecated".
Your semantic argument is irrelevant to the installation program.
