If I delete a new member, using the button on their public profile page, the page reloads to our standard 404 error page.

But if I delete a new member using the button on their admin page, it reloads to a mostly blank page, with just the admin menu bar:

At first I thought it was a “users” page which hadn’t finished loading - because, IIRC, it used to reload to a users page - and sat patiently waiting until I realised that’s all there is.

Expected behaviour: a “delete user” button should behave in the same manner, irrespective of where it’s located.

What version are you on? This was fixed by @zogstrip about two weeks ago.
