Comment:

 Wanted to create a ticket for this as well, bumping instead, deleted
 bookmarks should not be kept without the user knowing it is kept.

 I often delete bookmarks I don't consider relevant anymore, but knowing
 they're being backed up in `tor-browser_en-
 US/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default/bookmarkbackups` forces
 me to check that folder every few days and purge it.
