Actually, you can delete posts or comments too within a short window (about two hours from the time of posting, plus some other criteria to be fulfilled).

There was a discussion here [1] on this six months ago.

Right, absolutely. But the pattern of “I’ll say something I may regret next year but I’ll just delete it if I really do regret it” isn’t present.

Thanks for highlight this, though. A lot of people are seeing it for the first time, I bet.
