FWIW, I agree with what you wrote there.

Except for a few nits:

1. IMO, bugginess of a theme should matter (should
   be thought about, as you put it), but low usage
   (coverage?) should not.  Why remove a theme just
   because it's seldom used?

2. Once again: I have NOT objected to deleting the
   theme.  I asked about technical reasons to do so.

3. I have no idea who the "maintainer" of that theme is.
   We were asked to contribute themes when custom themes
   became a possibility, and I sent that one.
