 Hi Jpyper,

 Thank you for the report :-)

 However, this is actually expected behavior, i.e. a feature, not a bug.
 It's important to note the difference in terminology between "removing"
 and "deleting" a user. You remove a user from a site and delete a user
 from the network. If you want to delete a user from the network, that
 should be done from the Network Admin > Users screen.

 The case where a user belongs to no sites but still belongs to the network
 is actually where the User Admin comes in (`/wp-admin/user/`). It's not an
 oft-visited section of the !WordPress back-end, though I seem to recall
 that it's leveraged by WordPress.com, for example.

 Suggest close.
