Except that is not a permitted transaction in real life. If you want to remove a player from the 40-man roster, you're either trading him (which involves revocable trade waivers if the move is after the trade deadline), outrighting him (which involves irrevocable outright assignment waivers), or releasing him (which involved irrevocable unconditional release waivers, which are essentially a formality).
