No, you are not ;-)
It would be a minor speed improvement to first read the rpmdb and check if the
to-be-removed package is actually installed.
However, in order to ensure dependency consistency in the installed system, the
dependency solver needs to get the 'whole view'.
It doesn't know if 'foo' is a leaf package (no other installed packages depend
on it) or not. If foo is not a leaf package, removing it will break
dependencies of other packages. And here the solver jumps in and will try to
'heal' such breakage.
