Often it's just as easy to find the table-row, or container with the identifier, and use .parent.button(text: "Delete").click. When that's the case I usually find I like that better. but sometimes the structure doesn't allow for easy use of parent or containers because the items and the associated delete button/link don't share a common container.. so yeah in that case the index trick is a good way to go.
