As per post #2, the content controls can be deleted via code. It shouldn't matter whether python-docx can detect any text in content controls, since (as per the VBA examples I posted) the content controls are explicitly being deleted.

PS: Please stop quoting entire previous posts in your replies. Doing so only adds clutter. If there is something in a previous post that needs quoting, quote only that part.
