Maybe it does have to do with it, I don't know.
There's much too much implicit in those messages.
Please clarify.

E.g. Ergus says:

    I know it is just a detail, but in some cases (like when using man or
    compile mode, or reading a function documentation, or after executing
    magit commands) it doesn't make sense to keep the buffer in the buffer
    list after pressing q in 90% of the times.

so to me it seems like this doesn't have to do with whether windows get
deleted but with whether buffers are kept (maybe at all, or maybe only
in the buffer lists).
