IMHO the option is a bit misnamed unfortunately ("Safe Remove" sounds
like something I'd almost always enable - it's "safe" after all ;)).

I am not sure how many users read the tooltips, one possible alternative
would be to make the label sound more dangerous (or rather, use
something there that implies it has a cost), and move the option name
into the tooltip? maybe something like "Wipe removed volumes" could
work?
