It's relevant to the point that that post was replying to. "I couldnt find a better way to do it and neither will the average reddit user who has 1000s of comments."

The level of understanding (or level of willingness to figure out a more optimal way or even conceive that a more optimal way is available) of the typical computer user (which is probably not that far from the typical reddit user, because reddit is a mass-appeal site) is shockingly low. I've seen people with science PhDs open their browser to their default search engine page [Bing], type in Google, search for it, click on the resulting link, and then type their search query. Those people are not going to be finding the "easy delete script".
