   I'm sorry, but I don't think we should do this in 3.9.
   
   The offline partitions metric is at least a decade old, and has always 
worked this way in ZK mode. Changing the behavior at this point would require a 
KIP. And probably even then, we'd want to create a new metric rather than 
changing the behavior of the old one. Topics in "deleting" state really do 
represent a lack of availability in some sense, since their names cannot be 
used until the deleting state is cleared (probably manually, by starting 
stopped brokers.) So some administrators may be relying on the current behavior 
of this metric to detect that and realize they need to do something about it.
   
   Deleting state doesn't exist in 4.0 / KRaft, so if you agree, we can just 
close this JIRA with fix version 4.0.
