In this case, user is syncing deletes from source to Target, the error claims the target object is - essentially a container.

The product is trying to delete the directory object, Users/Contacts/Groups/Computers can act as "Containers", similar to an OU.

The product doesn't expect them to be a container so it will not delete them

To see the container, we need to enable "Users, Contacts, Groups, and Computers as containers"
