Because deleting your account doesn't remove your comments...
Huh. Well, there is one other reason as well:
They have apparently revived deleted accounts and puppeted them/gave them away (which honestly just waiting for that shit to happen in EU by accident and them getting sued to hell and back for it), so this way I can keep control
Thanks for that info though. Shame people are downvoting you for sharing that
Correct, it does not, which is why they need to be deleted individually or overwritten.
Even deleting them individually might not be enough at this point (they might be restored from backups).
Which is what I realized when you said that... Hence my comment
