​You can't (well, someone can probably think of a contrived situation where
you could, there's always someone, but generally speaking). The problem​ is
with removing certain UEFI variables in buggy UEFI implementations (which
are all too common). But in this case (with buggy UEFI implementation) a
simple rm -rf of the wrong directory can brick your motherboard.
