Sof-firmware orphaned?

After searching for my orphaned packages with Pamac today, I was shown sof-firmware 1.8-1. During today I got an update of the pulseaudio-manjaro-metapackage (or something like that) and installed it. Could this have made the Sound Open Firmware obsolete? Question: can I delete sof-firmware 1.8-1, since orphaned or should I better mark it as explicitly installed and leave it?
