You are right, only new inserts after delete are taken into account:
CREATE KEYSPACE ks WITH replication = {'class': 'SimpleStrategy',
'replication_factor': 1};
CREATE TABLE ks.tb (id int PRIMARY KEY , str text);
INSERT INTO ks.tb (id, str) VALUES ( 0,'');
DELETE from ks.tb WHERE id =0;
What would be returned in the following example?
Row with columns exists
Row is deleted (row tombstone)
Row key is recreated
Would columns that existed before the row delete/tombstone show back up in a
read if the row key is recreated?
My assumption is that the row key tombstone timestamp is
