No, deltas can work with filesystem data.
What do you do about %config files? They can be legitimately changed
on the filesystem. Also, what about prelinked executables/libraries?
Do you include %config files in all delta rpms and unprelink
executables/libraries to a stream before creating a rpm from that?
