Dropping databases is different from dropping tables. We obviously haven't
dropped tables previously because a number of broken, outdated, or otherwise
unneeded tables have accumulated. :-)  It's time to clean up. I'm focused
solely on cases where the database tables are no longer used or needed.

Yes, this is true for enwiki (and possibly other databases). povwatch_* tables
on testwiki contain a small amount of data, but given that it's a test wiki and
that the extension is no longer installed... nobody should care.
