Deleting native user causes all but one node to fail

[lksnyder0]

Elasticsearch version: 7.8.1

Role version: 7.8.1

JVM version (java -version):

# /usr/share/elasticsearch/jdk/bin/java -version
openjdk version "14.0.1" 2020-04-14
OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK (build 14.0.1+7)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM AdoptOpenJDK (build 14.0.1+7, mixed mode, sharing)

OS version (uname -a if on a Unix-like system): Ubuntu 18.04.3

Description of the problem including expected versus actual behaviour: When multiple nodes are configured and a user is deleted, all nodes but one will fail. I expected any CRUD operations on users and roles to only occur once.
