Answers drop off leaderboard if user is deleted
I noticed that the 3 answers to [Net​​ or​​ not?](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/292173) previously showed on the automated leaderboard, but now only 2 answers show. The one that is no longer showing is still present as an answer, but the user has been deleted. It appears that posts by deleted users do not show up in the leaderboard.

> ![Leaderboard with 2 answers, followed by the text "3 answers" and an answer not present on the leaderboard](https://codegolf.codidact.com/uploads/8ljytl2onkfvqsjezungf68mx6a8)

Is this the desired behaviour, or should all non-deleted answers show on the leaderboard, even if the user is deleted?
