I am aware that we don't use database-level cascades (ticket:21961) but I
expected this to be implemented by Django in Python, given the docs
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/topics/db/models/#multi-table-
inheritance) say that the automatically-created `OneToOneField` on the
child model will have `on_delete=models.CASCADE`.
{{{
place_ptr = models.OneToOneField(
Place,
on_delete=models.CASCADE,
parent_link=True,
primary_key=True,
)
}}}
I have produced a reproducer which I will provide a link to shortly. In
summary though, you simply need to create a table using multi-table
inheritance and then delete that table. While the child table will be
deleted, the corresponding rows in the parent table will remain,
