Even though it could be present in the profile, users shouldn=E2=80=99t be concerned about it. Currently, =E2=80=98--delete-generations=E2=80=99 ignores the zeroth genera= tion. Other options seem even more confusing: 1. If you don=E2=80=99t have any other generations and delete it, profile couldn=E2=80=99t point to anything. 2. If you delete it along with the profile, users might be confused (or angry).
