This is likely because it defaults to `--allowerasing` behaviour? This
is kinda a controversial topic. GNOME Software also does this, and I
don't *love* it as it can result in people being surprised by packages
having disappeared on upgrade. ('allowerasing' means, basically, if a
package like this is blocking the transaction, just remove it).
GNOME Software warns exactly which packages would be removed by an
upgrade, so there should be no surprises. (This is afaik the only place
where packages are exposed in the UI. Normally Software only shows
applications and plug-ins.)
