I just checked, this is the case.

Still, package-delete did not cleanly delete the package from
package-alist, only its description.

I pushed a fix to cleanly remove the package occurrence.

Closing this bug.

package-delete does not update package-alist

This means that package-installed-p will still return true after
package-delete deletes the package.
