My understanding as well. It orphans the cache element in WMI. Seems like it is misdocumented?

In the “old’n days” of ConfigMgr (2007-2012), I always heard (maybe incorrectly) it was a no-no to delete folders from ccmcache because they were tied to WMI so closely and if you deleted a cache folder and then tried to run the deployment again from Run Advertised Programs/Software Center, WMI would think the content still existed in ccmcache and would just fail to run. It wasn’t smart enough to know that it had to be downloaded again. Doesn’t sound like that’s true anymore…? Or did I misunderstand it in previous versions of CM.
