Uhh, as it stands, closing AFDs is an enormous headache for admins that
can get them into controversies and RFCs for failing to close a 51%
delete vote as delete. What you're not noticing here is that /you still
need an admin to delete an article/. Pure-admin deletion would make
/less/ hassle for admins, not more.
Pure admin deletion turns the admin group from a service organization
to a cabal that you must belong to in order to perform certain
actions. It also give people who are otherwise happy with simply
editing a tainted motivation to stand for adminship.
Aristocracies are *always* easier for the aristocrats.
