Why? PackageKit zypper plugin should default to dup on Tumbleweed and I used it both with GNOME Software and KDE default updater.
Are there any real problems or is it "just in case"?

Not that I'm aware of. Both the zypp and dnf backends will do dist-upgrade/distro-sync upgrades automatically. I've been using it for a couple of years now.

The recommended and supported way to update Tumbleweed is still via zypper, thus I was under the impression that the default via PackageKit would be misleading. That said gnome-packagekit and package-update-indicator can still be installed if so desired, they just are no longer default on Tumbleweed. Of course if there an overwhelming rejection of this change we can always restore it the way it was.

This isn't right. We have been told many times by the people in charge, that PackageKit is using "zypper dup".
-> everything on TW uses "zypper dup" only.
So, as it is the same thing, you are removing functionality for no reason.
On Gnome and KDE the guis are working beautifully (other than the few cases when they fail and don't apply the updates due to missing updated packages dependencies in the repos -> this then has to be manually resolved (by typing 1,2,3,4) with zypper on the cmd line or yast).
So: Please stop removing beautiful functionality and instead focus on improving the guis to take care of these corner cases.
-> we are in 2023. Please stop going backwards.
Many thanks.

I missed that. This is the recommendation I saw: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Upgrade_Tumbleweed (I don't usually log out of the desktop when upgrading, though.)

First of all, no functionality is being removed, only the default is being changed to align with what is officially recommended and supported [0]. You can still use PackageKit in Xfce if you wish, you just need to install package-update-indicator yourself. Second, I have stated the reason. Just because something "kinda works" it doesn't mean it's fully supported nor should be recommended by default. In the case of Xfce, it isn't fully supported at the moment. Gnome and KDE have a feature with the offline update method via PackageKit which is arguably a better approach than executing a Tumbleweed update via PackageKit on a live system. There is already a plan to implement offline updates via GUI for Xfce the same way it's already possible with Gnome.

Please stop the disrespectful tone and demands, this isn't what motivates volunteer developers to do any work.
