Not sure if I get what you're trying to say. I don't think that deletion should be an edit-to-empty, I think we're in agreement there.
When defined in distinct XEPs, I think both XEPs would be (or should be) near copies of each-other, which would be needlessly complex. I propose to have one XEP, that defines distinct keywords for 'correction' and 'deletion'. A reference to the original message is desirable for a correction for many of the same reasons as it is desirable for a deletion.
