Eventually is pretty much trying a test in a loop and that encourages
flakey tests - I am in general not a very big fan of using eventually.
The correct approach is to fix the non-determinism. Being able to detect
that all files have been deleted has value - and gives easy debuggability.
Being able to deterministically to know that all files are gone before
proceeding does help debuggability.
I don't really believe we are actually a accommodating the test - we are
really fixing the code to allow deterministic testing.
