    What would happen if I just deleted every theme in the repository? Even the default ones? Would it auto re-download the default themes or display a blank page or what? I don’t know why I care I just need to know for some reason.

    You won’t be able to delete all of the themes from Appearance -> Themes in the Dashboard, because you can’t delete the active theme.

    If you manually delete the files themselves from /wp-content/themes/ on your server, the front of your site will either be blank or riddled with fatal errors, but you *should* be able to access the Dashboard to install any theme (the only exception being if you have a poorly coded plugin which requires the now-deleted theme and was not made to fail gracefully).
