Correct, you should not be deleting users who have certain types of data associated with them - comments, assigned issues or reported issues.

If you want to remove a user from your system, deactivate them.  They will stop being listed for selections in fields, and won't count towards your licence count.  This also has the benefit of not destroying information that is usually needed for audits and compliance.
