It was an account merge. You cannot delete your threads “PROFILE” without deleting your instagram.
There is no other service which utilizes google/Facebook/etc to login that when I cancel my account on that platform I lose my google/Facebook/etc account.
From the TOS
“You may deactivate your Threads profile at any time, but your Threads profile can only be deleted by deleting your Instagram account,”
But hey, they are working on it. Ya know after all the publicity about shattering “SIGN UP” records.
