@azmidhun you are right this is the case, A workaround to make sure the offering is no longer used you need to set the field removed on it. There is no APIU to this at the moment. that would be a good improvement. The issue with that is that no exisitng VM may be using it or problems will arise when actions on those VMs are taken. So take care if you use my workaround.
