System Information
Operating system: macOS-14.0-x86_64-i386-64bit 64 Bits
Graphics card: Metal API Apple M1 1.2

Blender Version
Broken: version: 4.0.0 Release Candidate, branch: blender-v4.0-release, commit date: 2023-11-10 13:29, hash: c688b038473a
Worked: (don't know)

Short description of error
Deleting a boolean with a name in a Geometry node deletes the boolean, but leaves the boolean operation, unless that boolean
was deleted in the outliner, or the name was removed from the geometry node before deleting it in the viewport.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Option 1 (persistent boolean)
Open attached .blend,
In the viewport select and delete the boolean (bool_cube)
(the boolean deletes, but the operation stays)

Option 2 (non-persistent boolean)
Open attached .blend
In outliner delete bool_cube
(boolean and operation deletes)

Option 3 (non-persistent boolean)
Open attached .blend
In 'GeoCube' geometry node delete the name 'bool_cube' in the object info,
In viewport delete bool_cube (boolean object is deleted as well as operation).

You can get rid of it completely if you do Object > Delete Global

See also https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/4.0/scene_layout/object/editing/delete.html

It will still have users otherwise:

>>> bpy.data.user_map(subset=(bpy.data.objects['bool_cube'], ))
{bpy.data.objects['bool_cube']: {bpy.data.scenes['Scene'], bpy.data.objects['Cube'], bpy.data.node_groups['GeoCube']}}

This sort of thing has caused confusion before, see e.g. #106025 or #112766

But generally, not considered a bug.
Not deleting "global" in the 3D viewport is more like unlinking from the current scene, use Delete Global if you want the object to be truly deleted from everywhere.

I will close this report (feel free to comment again though if issues persist).
