They are two very different things.

One is no longer doing something.
The other is about deleting something.

I can completely understand the first.
But don't see the necessity of the second.
And I don't see how they need to be related.

With the first you achieve something worthwhile.
The second seems more arbitrary and less of an achievement or benefit and more of a penalty ... a bit like trying to rewrite history.

One seems an intelligent thoughtful action, the other emotional.

Maybe its my age. Maybe experience has taught me not to burn bridges if you don't have to, especially when there is no obvious benefit.

Anyway, no need to open this all up again. I've already declared my views earlier in this thread.
I think you are over thinking it. If one is not going to keep/use something, get rid of it. If one is no longer going to use Amazon, why keep the account?

I believe the idea of keeping something if one is not going to use it is called hoarding?
