It is not only about non-deletion. It is also about updating. |

Suppose that you have installed openrc and systemd, and only one of it |
| 9 |
is in @world (or depends on something from @world). |
| 10 |
Then emerge -NaDu @world won't update the other init-system - it becomes |
| 11 |
stale and might even have security bugs which are not fixed. |

That's why detecting that depclean would remove it is actually a good |
| 13 |
thing: It shows that something is not configured as you intended. |
