So do most of mine. Makes maintaining data integrity a lot simpler and it's how my database replication tools work.
GDPR was the only time I bothered to delete the data, and even then it was me setting the content of the records to "Information removed due to GDPR".
Being able to undelete data is a powerful customer service tool, and when Grandma's Facebook account gets hacked (because her password is one of her grandkid's names), and all the photos get nuked (and being grandma, Facebook is their photo backup solution), they're probably going to want that all that restoring again.
But then if data privacy was important to you, you wouldn't have put it on Threads.
