DELETE the URI (of the information space), not the person (of the physical space). That is all the difference. HTTP does *not* define how the information is manipulated by the server.

If one view doesn’t suit your needs, then feel free to create a different resource that provides a better view (for any definition of “better”). These views need not have anything to do with how the information is stored on the server, or even what kind of state it ultimately reflects. It just needs to be understandable (and actionable) by the recipient.
