This is a totally useless analogy. In this example there is no functional meaning in the name of the vehicle, whereas there clearly is a functional meaning in the case of a Debian package. After the need for a transition package has passed, no longer having a transition package which causes iceweasel to be installed is appropriate. To place this analogy into a proper perspective, what really is the case is akin to having someone comming onto the car lot, saying that they want a Ford Focus, and pointing them at a Peugeot 307 because this isn't a Ford dealer.
