This will result in errors being emitted for references that can't be
deleted, but that is a good thing.

This sounds a bit like hand-waving to me. "Trust me, I'm an engineer!".

I think the argument is "we failed to do that the user asked for, but
never reported the reason why".

But I don't see how that is the case. We already complain if
repack_without_refs fail, and AFAICT the original call to delete_ref()
would emit an error, as well.
