Doing more keyring housekeeping, I would like to all revoke user IDs of keypairs with revoked/expired certificates. However, I am getting this error:

gpg: Cannot revoke the last valid user ID.

This is also in the documentation:

--quick-revoke-uid user-id user-id-to-revoke
This command revokes a user ID on an existing key. It cannot be used to revoke the last user ID on key (some non-revoked user ID must remain) […]

https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/OpenPGP-Key-Management.html

Why it this?

I have keypairs with revoked/expired certificates keys in my keyring which have *all* user IDs revoked. And I am sure I want to do this. Is there a way to override this limitation?

If you upload your address book to "the cloud", I don't want to be in it.
