As this package clearly demonstrates, it's a broken design.

The way unpublishing works is broken. It would be better if unpublish would just hide the version. Then it would not matter if someone unpublished something with dependencies.

That's how crates.io does it with yanked releases.

It's removed from the index, and cargo will only download it using a pre-existing lock file
