   Thanks for taking a look. You're both right that RewritePositionDeletes 
already clears these as part of a rewrite. The one thing that nudged me here is 
that RemoveDanglingDeletes already handles DVs and partition-scoped position 
deletes, so file-scoped v2 deletes are the only delete type it skips, which 
felt like a small internal inconsistency. And since it only rewrites metadata, 
it gets there without rewriting the position delete files themselves.
   
   That said, if the intended maintenance story is RewritePositionDeletes for 
V2 and RemoveDanglingDeletes for V3, I'm fine dropping this and leaving it 
there. Happy to go whichever way you prefer.
