OK, I think that clears up the point of confusion. The Bin icon in Notes does not open a deleted files repository as it does in the Finder on the Mac. It simply deleted WHATEVER IS CURRENTLY SELECTED. In your wife’s case that would have been the latest note she had just created/edited. It’s the legacy of not having a “Desktop” in iOS. Anyway, your experience does point out the benefit of having iCloud configured across your devices.
