SUMMARY

On every other system, when you "delete" a file from an external disk it does
what you expect - DELETE the file, typically after a warning. Not Dolphin
though, here it gets moved to your main disk, into the trash folder.

But this is not even the worst thing here. Not only is the expected behavior
not default, it's not even realistically achievable. The only way to do it, is
if you know the hidden "delete permanently shortcut," which is nowhere to be
found in the GUI.
