[rfc-i] "obsoleted by" in RFC 5143

relationships are defined: "Updates", and "Obsoletes" [RFC2223].
Variants like "Obsoleted by" are also used (e.g in [RFC5143]).
Other types of relationships may be defined by the RFC Editor and
may appear in future RFCs.
That confused me a lot, because "obsoleted by" is the inverse of
"obsoletes", not a variant, right?
But, indeed, RFC 5143 *is* obsoleted by RFC 4842, which was published
one year earlier.
Does anybody know what exactly happened here?
