It's still visible on the person's profile.
If a person came up and slapped a Taylor Swift poster on a wall and security came over and took the poster down, rolled it up and handed it back to the person, did they destroy it?

No, but delete and destroy aren't the same thing. A deleted file isn't removed from the file system, either. Heck, the concept of undelete wouldn't make sense if deleting meant destroy.
Delete just means remove, and they did in fact remove the poster.
