Why is there no function to delete posts on steemit?

Wouldn't it be a useful thing to have?

Is it because then "money" would have to be refunded and there is no way to do that?
Steemit isn't really very user friendly when it comes to finding information on these kinds of subjects.

Oops. Judy didn't realise PFC was still signed in when she tried to post. :(

I kind of looked around. The consenses seems to be that you edit the post then change the title to 'Deleted', erase the content, and give it some vague tag like 'spam' or 'delete'
