I am unclear what case you are covering.

No, also if there is an RR addition, it means the RRset has changed, so 
existing RRSIG records can be implicitly removed.

Note there is no such thing as an RRSIG RRset. I tried to clarify this 
in the terminology bis document:

   https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dnsop/current/msg22118.html

Note that adding an RRSIG is different than replacing an RRSIG.

I think it makes more sense to keep the text as is, that is when 
changing an RRset implicitly remove the corresponding RRSIG records. I 
am opposed to only removing corresponding RRSIG on a RR deletion.

Best regards,
