Comment:

 @obenland @timmydcrawford is this not a duplicate #27575? Widgets are not
 able to be fully deleted in the Customizer because there is not yet the
 ability to manage inactive widgets from there (see #27404). You'll note
 that the widget in the customizer has a “Remove” link as opposed to a
 “Delete” link.
