It’s like how most people call moving a file into the trash can “deleting.” It is deleted (in a sense), but you can still recover it if you want before the trash can gets emptied.
Or like how even you can actually delet a file from the disk but still be able to recover it before the disk space is overwritten by other files. I’m not saying that this is what Google does when you recover a freshly deleted account (most likely not), but what I’m trying to say with these two examples is that being able to be recovered is not a contradiction with having been deleted
Also I don’t get why you take problem with this. It’s not like it’s another loop to jump through to get to delete the account?








Back like 7 years ago, in my German classes, we were given a list of names to choose from. Don’t exactly remember what I chose, but I think it started with an F and was 5 letters long? Liked it quite a bit.
In the Japanese classes I took 2 years ago we were given the choice of picking a Japanese name, but most, including me, rolled with a transliteration of their own name.
