The idea behind this guideline is to accommodate the following scenario: User selfupdates and upgrades outdated ports, then does not touch their MacPorts installation for up to a year, then selfupdates and upgrades outdated ports again. In light of this, I would say the deletion countdown does not reset if the replaced_by port is edited again.
