It seems that you have (or did in the future) install Unity from source
with the LOCALINSTALL flag on. In that case, the plugin and many
settings get stored in ~/.compiz-1.

>From the Unity end, it would not make sense to empty that directory on
--reset. In many cases, Unity might actually be running from that
particular directory, and removing it would do nothing but break things
further.

In the most common scenarios, where no one has installed Unity from
source, the current implementation is good, in which Compiz settings are
reset and Unity is re-loaded on --reset.

I'm not very sure if I'm right about everything, but this is what I
concur from my past experience.
