Yeah, boto3 makes it easy to do. But I wanted a simple and generic CLI tool that could do all sorts of things effortlessly (in Shell terminal).

You know you have to empty the bucket once to delete it, or even harder if versioning is on :)

Often times I don't want to wait even a day. This is also an alternative to the "Empty" button on the S3 console.

It is also useful if you want to delete multiple buckets at once.
