I wonder what point you're talking about. The one and only point you made was that dpkg force removes packages at runtime and it doesn't do that. What other point is there?

That's you saying there is a point. That's not you telling us what the point is.

What I don't understand is why apt-get is better than dpkg. You haven't explained that.
