But deleting from disk and compacting is not pointless.

As I said in my very next line.
But compacting folders regularly will have the desired effect.
You can set SM to do this automagically:

As for emptying the Trash, I have SM set to do that for each
account on exit; YMMV.
IIRC Junk Folder <> Trash Folder.
Correct. But the routine you advised was to delete the junk and then
empty the trash. Isn't it better to have SM routinely empty the trash
than to devote valuable brain time to remembering and doing it?
I personally avoid doing unrecoverable actions automagically. Antiques
Roadshow has illustrated that many times ;/
Fine. That's why I suggested the Junk aging process -- you have a week
to reconsider before a given message is purged. If it's junk and you
haven't changed your mind in a week, you're not gonna change your mind.
