This makes perfect sense.

When are you supposed to run remove-retired-packages?
If you run remove-retired-packages after the upgrade, you already managed to
upgrade and nothing is broken, no?
If you run remove-retired-packages before the upgrade, it might remove
something that will be correctly obsoleted and provided by a replacement
package that offers the same functionality under a different package name.
