There are dependencies, but only higher levels/incrs form dependencies
on a given saveset.  Lower levels/fulls do not.

Since the only saveset using the longer retention in the description is
a full, it shouldn't impact the other savesets.

The reverse situation would be different.  A one month full with a six
month incr as a dependency should not expire for six months under normal
circumstances.
