No it is not a dumb question
Yes it will blow the entire wine configuration of the user.

Below is a cutout from the official wine FAQ

      3. Applications


        3.1. How do I uninstall Windows applications?

Wine has its own built-in uninstaller
<http://wiki.winehq.org/uninstaller> - equivalent of Windows "add/remove
programs" function for running standardized uninstallers. In recent
version, a shortcut has been added in Wine's menu, along with a shortcut
to winecfg <http://wiki.winehq.org/winecfg>.

The uninstaller does not remove menu entries. To remove *all* Wine
created menu entries run the following commands

rm -f $HOME/.config/menus/applications-merged/wine*
rm -rf $HOME/.local/share/applications/wine
rm -f $HOME/.local/share/desktop-directories/wine*
rm -f $HOME/.local/share/icons/????_*.xpm
