Removing the snap remove the current data directory #22

After an autoupgrade to the Chromium forked version, I removed the old Brave snap. When I notice my bookmarks had not been automatically imported, I looked at ~/snap/brave but the data folder which current had been linked to was removed when I removed the snap. I still had data from redundant folders created from previous upgrades: 18 32 33.

Isn't the standard practice to leave the data directory intact when removing snaps and apt packages?
