I agree with Branden (and FWIW, I object to this proposal).
In order to achieve LSB compliance a lsb package will be needed. This
package can depend on all the required packages that provide the
libraries that should be present on a LSB-compliant system. The LSB
document specifies that a LSB-compliant package ''must depend on a
dependency (sic) "lsb". They may not depend on other system-provided
dependencies''

he is not (IOW, his is not the only way to achieve LSB compliance)
