Did you delete them from Dired, or did you delete them "by other
means"?

It seems we should disable that test for directories.  I suggest to
wait for a few days to let others come up with objections, and if none
do, make that change.

Meanwhile, I suggest that you make this change on your system, and see
if that has any adverse effects.

Thanks.
