No, this point doesn't hold.
The heartbeat script shouldn't delete it as such; there is a point to
it, namely cleaning out stale data on system boot, but we may in fact be
better off leaving this to the system startup scripts (and not remove
those files there); we have to deal with them becoming stale at runtime
(due to potential crashes etc) anyway.
