I agree with that and the kernel removal behavior isn't the only difference.  I mean, how often would one run dnf remove glibc on purpose and the significant amount of accidental runs of yum that caused serious problems resulted in yum developers adding some protection against removing key packages.  dnf changing this expected behavior is problem and clearly this is a design decision which I think needs to revisited.
