Oddity with a Security Update being superseded by an Update - but not being listed that way in WSUS?

I had an odd issue a few months ago that I forgot to post about re: the following 2 updates:

On one of my systems, I expected to see "Security Update" KB2789649 listed as "Needed"

But I did NOT; owing, I surmised, to "Update" KB2805222 having been installed (see files below).

However, my WSUS GUI does NOT list anything as having superseded KB2789649???

Ac. to the KB articles, I noted that KB2805222 updates the 2 files from KB2789649 to newer versions:
system.windows.forms.dll
system.windows.forms.resources.dll

Here are the KB articles that list the file versions, etc. :
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2789649
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2805222

So it seems like this Security Update:
MS13-015 / Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 on Windows 8 x86 (KB2789649)

was superseded by this Update:
Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 on Windows 8 (KB2805222)

My confusions were:

  • Why does WSUS not list this supersedence?
  • And why were my Windows Update results correct, given that WSUS did not seem to be correct / complete?

I hope this question makes sense...
