That is a UI debate and there is the other party that argues to always keep the options in the menus and disable them so that the user sees they exist but cannot use them.

Anyway, the prohibited deletion of accounts is by design and documented in https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/extragear-office/kmymoney/details.accounts.delete.html

I tried right clicking the account name in the Home view pane, but there was no context menu. I when into the Accounts view pane, I highlighted an account and went into the Account menu and delete was still grayed out. I next tried to right mouse click on the account name and delete account was grayed out.
