+   * <ol>
+   *   <li>The target is at or before the MDT's penultimate completed 
compaction (when at least

no base file at or
+   *       before the target time.</li>
+   *   <li>The target is at or before the oldest completed compaction. We 
cannot restore to before
+   *       the oldest compaction because we don't have base files before that 
time.</li>
+   *   <li>The target is before the MDT timeline start (the relevant history 
was archived away).</li>
+   * </ol>
+   * Returns false when the MDT directory does not exist (nothing to delete or 
worry about).
+   * Wraps any IOException reading the MDT in a {@link HoodieException} so 
genuine permission /

swallowed.

Review Comment:
   it's more clear if we flip the flag to mark whether the mdt has been deleted.
