It's not necessarily the best name, but, as you say, it's not a new
issue, and it is local to that file.

Also, it's such a small function, and it's quite clear from the
implementation that it's deleting stuff from .git/worktrees that it's
probably okay to leave the name as-is for now.

That's perhaps a bit better, though still somewhat ambiguous, as I can
also read it as deleting something from every worktree directory, as
opposed to from .git/worktrees.
