I don't understand this. The manpage says

%<
If  this  option is repeated, rsync omits all mount-point directories from
the copy. Otherwise, it includes an empty directory at each mount-point it
encounters (using the attributes of the mounted directory because those of
the underlying mount-point directory are inaccessible).
%<

In other words, with -xx the mount point directory is not added to the
list and with --delete, it means the directory is correctly deleted on the
destination side.

Then, with only -x, that's "Otherwise, it includes an empty directory at
each mount-point it encounters". Now, if it does so, with --delete, it
should also result in a empty directory on the destination side.

Please note that -xx does exactly what it says, but -x does not!

What did I miss?

Thanks,
Simon
