Clinch by Truncation/Realignment?

So it's inevitable that parts of highways will eventually be removed from the system, realigned, or renumbered. Have any of you ended up clinching a route this way?

One scenario for this is the recent truncation of I-70 near Baltimore, where the part of it going from I-695 to the Park and Ride was decommissioned. Suppose you'd ridden every part while that last portion was still I-70, except inside I-695. Would you consider it a clinch post-truncation?

And if you do, what are your more notable clinches gained not through traveling the entire route as it was, but by the portion you didn't travel being removed from that route?

Ironically enough, your example led me to clinching I-70 in MD. I have no idea if I-70 was actually truncated, but that was a clinch for I-70 in MD.
