What is the relation between Rename, Delete and Move files/folders inside SharePoint Document library

In SharePoint Online permissions; SharePoint treats those 3 actions in a similar manner:-

 

1) Rename File/Folder

2) Delete File/Folder

3) Move File/Folder

 

so for example if we create a custom permission level which allow users to contribute but not to delete inside a document library (for example by creating a custom permission level and uncheck those 2 check-boxes)

then users will not be able to delete files (which is obvious from the above permission levels) + will not be able to rename files + will not be able to move files outside the document library.

 

so does this mean that if we create a workflow which trigger when a file is deleted, then this workflow will also run if the file/folder is moved or renamed?

 

Thanks
