   I do not see why we need to change this. Consider the usage of InitMetaProcedure, if there is a meta directory there, it must be 'partial'. And even it is not partial, we are still safe to delete it, as there should be no data in it.
   
   If this is not the case, we must have inconsistency in our cluster. For safety, I think we could skip the deletion of the meta directory, but we should still fail the procedure and thus fail the initialization of master. Users should fix the inconsistency before starting again.
