This is a bit of a wrong recipient for your complaint - apt does not
manage snap packages, the deb2snap packages implement that in their
maintainer scripts - but let me say that this behaviour is in line with
the behaviour expected for transitional packages.
For deb2deb transitional packages, apt even implements special logic for
that behaviour: If a package is manually installed but becomes a
transitional package, the manual bit moves to the new package replacing
it and the transitional package becomes autoremovable.
The behaviour for deb2snap packages is in line with that, with the
exception that these do not become automatically removable.
