So if we look at the code on Github in moderation.php you will notice that if soft delete is not enabled, posts will not actually be deleted.

If soft delete is not enabled this line deletes the post permanently:

It is very weird how that isn't by the other condition.

Yes it is. Was no need to pass through similar condition loops just for the sake of making single log line.
But the code is correct and doing the job.

Also foreach can / should be optimized to single query with multiple pids. Its a huge number of queries if we are deleting many posts at once.

I might address this in my plugin for Restoring Soft Deleted Threads and Posts. I'm thinking doing a select query on posts using an IN clause with pids to get the list of threads and forums that need to be updated. After that run a delete query with an IN clause so all posts can be deleted in one go. Then update the affected threads. Finally, update the affected forums. This should significantly reduce the number of queries.
