For me deleting things online makes room for new things, we should have the right to forget and delete.

I agree. It's a lively debate these days, but it applies mostly to Big Tech and yet they will manage keep and abuse our data somehow. I think Lichess will keep that data, too, but for them. For us, it is gone, unless they open that part of the database somehow. But more importantly, it's the capacity, as I said. The team wasn't hurting anyone. It was not a burden or anything. So, we lost the capacity to use it and to hold a long-life Lichess team that had to do with the blockchain. The good thing is not everything is gone, of course. For the most part we have the links to the Swiss tournaments and hence the games and other info. Imagine how terrible it would be it that disappeared, too!
Also I think the argument for forgetting things is more adequate when it comes to bad things, failures and things like that, you know. I don't think our Lichess team was something unpleasant or a failure to forget it! :)
