The servlet specification requires that certain services be provided
by the container. Among them are a) a default servlet to serve content
for which no other servlet mapping exists (e.g. static files, etc.)
and b) a servlet called "jsp" that is, by default, mapped to "*.jsp".

Tomcat chooses to provide the above services by using conf/web.xml as
a default. If you break that mechanism, you are going to lose some
functionality. The webapp should be able to rely on the default and
JSP servlets being available even without specifically configuring
them in the webapp's own web.xml.

Why are you deleting conf/web.xml in the first place?
