For the record, what is the reason why rpm doesn't run the pre-removal

I think the reason is that if the system requires an RPM, you want to make sure you have a good copy of it on the system at all times, especially during an RPM upgrade. If you start taking pieces of it off the system before you start the upgrade process, then you risk having an unusable system for the remainder of the upgrade process.
