    The plugin description currently lists the deletion of WC Admin tables as and advanced feature, which needs to be done outside the plugin. Adding the ability to do this from the plugin settings page would make this job MUCH easier, and accessible to those who aren’t technical enough to do it manually.

    The idea is ok, but it should then come with a clear warning. A user may later want to reenable WC Admin, and then what?

    The scope of this fine plugin is performance and admin tidyness. A few extra tables in the DB has no performance impact. It also takes up very little disk space when empty. It will make your DB schema more tidy, of course, but if you are technical enough to care, you are technical enough to drop them.

    An option to empty those tables will be sufficient, IMHO.

    It takes the same number of queries and buttons to drop tables that it does to dump/clear them. Since the plugin author recommends this, the plugin might as well help users do it.

    Obviously, so not relevant and not my point.

    The plugin author suggests it, not recommends it. I guess for a reason.

    Your idea is ok, but I hope not as a recommendation. Emptying could be a recommendation. Two buttons, then.
