Hi!
On the other hand, the issue is valid. There could be a question pop-up
that asks if user wants to create directories. Or at least an info
pop-up that informs that certain dirs were created. These dirs are
useful only if graphical session is installed anyway.
There is also an issue with localization (make links instead of renaming
dirs) which hangs in bug tracker for a long time.

Hello Thomas,
It seems to me your primary issue is that xdg-user-dirs was installed
by default and/or without your consent. Rather than blame the software
for existing, it may make much more sense to talk to your distribution
maintainers (debian in this case), and ask them to remove the package
from a default install, or from the repositories entirely.
