No, we do a bit better than that. We look at the built binaries. If any of them use the symbol version under development (GLIBC_2.35 in case of current rawhide), we add a >= dependency on the glibc version used for building. During the Fedora 36 cycle, fewer GLIBC_2.35 symbols have been added, so I don't expect many packages receiving this versioned dependency that makes downgrades harder.
