A building like this is too powerful to obsolete.  Manipulating research 
to avoid (or reach, depending on what side you're on) a particular tech 
to obsolete the building does not make for good gameplay.  And it is not 
realistic that after researching a particular technology the production 
of the empire would instantaneously drop by 30%.  Note that no other 
non-unique buildings are obsoleted.

That said, it does make the factory a lot worse.
