Not OP, but presumably company C which desires to buy a licence to A will have to ensure they can provide their own B equivalent, or reach out to the author and ask them to enter the collective / enter into a private licencing agreement with them.
Not saying it's not a pain, but it's not prohibitive.
That _would_ mean, however, that this kind of dependencies should be explicit to C at the point of purchase on the Collective's website, so that an informed decision can be made to buy or not.
