The standards don't say squat about WHAT removes the cache. Yums cache is completely regeneratable, provided that the repository is still available. However the yum developers stance is that yum itself will not take the chance that the user really doesn't want that cache laying around, so it leaves it up to THE USER to clear disabled / removed repo cache.

The only 'abuse' I see is folks yelling at the yum developer because he refuses to implement a features he finds dangerous, and does not wish to get the tonnes of email when said dangerous feature actually does something the user didn't wish. The abuse comes after the developer says no, then the user gets all in a huff and starts throwing accusations around as well as names at times.
