Yes itd start a new welterweight lineage
The RING's version of lineage often doesn't match up to history's recognised lineages. Floyd-Guerrero was sanctioned for the vacant RING welterweight championship, so think about that for a while, lol.
Other recent examples where they didn't match up:
Canelo-Trout (vacant RING 154 title)
Khan-Garcia (vacant RING 140 title)
Wlad-Chagaev (vacant RING HW title)
Hernandez-Cunningham 2 (vacant RING 200 title)
Nietes-Fuentes (vacant RING 108 title)
Salido-Garcia (vacant RING 126 title)
You get the idea
