I am thinking of writing a new python code sample

to 'nuke' an account, for people who wants to 'delete' their profile.

Not sure this is possible, but will try

i don't know how widespread full support for nip-09 is but #realy - the one i am building does

what you need first is to get the complete list of all the event associated with the account, so you probably need to write a spider that scans all of the relays to compile the list, and then break it up into reasonable numbers of events per delete event and then broadcast those everywhere

relays that support it some of them are even configured to propagate events to other relays to make it actually happen

I am using nostr-sdk library in python

looks like there is a Eventbuilder.delete feature

yeah, it's pretty straight forward

i think possibly you can delete all events of a type from an author (you) with `a` tags, but i gotta tell ya having implemented the spec as well as i could manage, it's complicated, so expect to need some time to get it working

you'll probably need a relay you can run that does deletes properly and make a generator that spews events to it and then you run the delete and then check they are gone
