No, read the passage closely:
--
Packages must depend on a dependency "lsb". They may not depend on other
system-provided dependencies. If a package includes "Provides" it must
only provide a virtual package name which is registered to that
application.

They key thing is 'system-provided dependencies'. I can make a group of
related LSB packages that interdepend, and I can use file depends to do it
with.
