Deleting Successive Artboards
If you have a list of artboards and try and delete several of them in a row, deleting one will deselect the list. This is not a major issue in most cases, but it is a nuisance when having to quickly delete 40 or more artboards; it doubles the number of commands that need to be inputted before reaching the same result.

For anyone with the same issue, here is the response I got from the Adobe Illustrator team. I found this to be much more efficient than how I used to delete multiple artboards.

To achieve this quickly what you can do is select multiple artboards by shift + click or shift + drag to marquee in artboard tool mode and hit delete. All selected artboards will be deleted.
