Eh, the soname is part of the ABI provided by the package.  Historically
symbol versions were even tied to sonames (but glibc 2.30 did away with
that because all it did was preventing valid programs from loading).

Maybe the ABI checker employed here doesn't verify it because it assumes
that part is checked as part of the RPM dependencies?
