    What’s the benefit of deleting ones account(s) vs just letting it become an unused relic? Wouldn’t making them dedicate that fraction of their service space to dead accounts/comments/etc be more of a burden than removing it all for them?

      People visit reddit for user generated content. If you remove all the memes, links, comments, and answers to all the things you google " X site:reddit.com" to find, it loses value.
