I don't think that's quite true.  If you tell yum to remove a package, 
it'll remove that package and any package that requires it.  It doesn't 
descend the dependency tree in the opposite direction (normally, I 
believe there's a plugin that'll do that), and in no case will it ever 
do something inconsistent like removing a package which is required by 
something that yum leaves installed.
