No, it's not the same. Consider the implications of the constraint
you added:

ALTER TABLE reseller ADD CONSTRAINT FK_reseller_parent
FOREIGN KEY (parent_id) REFERENCES reseller(reseller_id)
ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This will cause the delete of reseller_id 1338 to propagate to the rows
in which 1338 appears as parent_id. Which sure looks to me like it's
the behavior you're complaining of.
