It would be better if CLI will warn what exactly is going to delete. Then it won't be an issue. Right now you can only wonder what delete actually does (as turns out, almost nothing).

Thanks for the feedbacks.
Because S3 bucket might have contents and the IAM roles might be used by other applications, so to be safe, the CLI does not delete them.
I will mark this as a feature request, we will think about how to improve the UX for amplify delete.
