 > I changed the required capability for accessing the data removal page to
 `delete_users`. This is a capability that Admins have on single sites, but
 only Super Admins have on multisites.

 Right. This should work quite differently on multisite. Seems the user
 should only be "removed" from the current website. If the user is not a
 member of any other website, then the data can be deleted completely,
 perhaps even without SA cap?
