> Erm, yes, you can delete it. I did so recently. They obfuscate it so you don’t see the option to do so in your account settings, but searching will get you to the page where you can request deletion.

Oh! I am happily surprised they put it back. I could have _sworn_ it was removed for the last month or so. I searched in earnest, and I was about to show you how wrong you were, and nope. Googled, clicked, it’s back. Thanks much for info, pal!
