Tempo Track, Warp Grid, how to remove a beat?

I am editing a tempo track and after I did a good job with the tempo detection I need to adjust the tempo to a slow bridge, when using the Warp grid tool I can’t go further to the right. The tempo in the next beat gets very high and I can’t cross the next line, I thought the next beat would go away if i drag the warp grid over the next Tempo warp anchor
I can see I need to remove or skip a beat in the tempo , It would be fine if I could merge two beats to one in the temp track. and remain with one slow beat and have slack to go further with adjusting the tempos

Do you still have the tempo detection panel open? If it is already closed I think you can just delete one tempo event from the tempo track.
Since the tempo detection places a 1/4 signature into the project ,that is basically a beat.

I think that deletes just the tempo of the beat, not the beat.

When editing a by tempo detection created tempo track and there are a lot of tempo anchors to the right of the point I am editing, there is not enough room to stack the beat not needed. If a song slows down I almost always get to much beats in the slow part when using tempo detection, even when I cut up the track in pieces
This was the next and probably last time I tried to use the time detection tool, It is much faster and easier to do it by hand and start at the first bar and work my way to the end of the song to avoid editing the points somewhere in between.

I feel there is a huge difference in doing the time warps whether you keep the tempo detection panel open or not.
When it is open, weird things are happening. I haven’t bothered to figure out exactly what is going on. I usually close the panel before doing time warp adjustments.

Did anyone figure this out? I have exact same problem and searching led me to this post. After tempo detection I cannot find a way to delete a beat. You can delete a tempo event, but that is not the same thing at all. Cubase sometimes detects a whole beat too many if the tempo drops a lot (e.g. a pause), and it seems there is nothing you can do to get rid of it. The following bar then does not start on the correct beat, and I have to introduce an artificial non-existent bar of 1/4 to get the next bar to fall in the right place. Merging two beats into one would do just as well as the effect would be the same.
