Except that it was, apparently, only not deleted because the original
author noted it and put a "hangon" in there. Had the author been away
at that time, it might have been deleted by the next admin coming
along. Yes this is speculation and yes I cannot assume whether that
would have happened. But still, closing this as "Oh, but in this case
it didn't actually *get* deleted, so move on" strikes me as a bit
simplistic.
