I dunno if the more recent pairing them up with the Master thing is working great either, though I'm at least interested to see where the Cybermasters go in future stories. Even by the time of The Next Doctor in 2008, the AU cybermen deleting and upgrading all over the place and being defeated by the narrative meme of turn off the inhibitor chip and watch their heads explode with the awareness of the monsters they had become was wearing pretty thin imo. That said, I don't think it aged all that well. It was a fine angle on the core cyberman idea circa the mid-late 2000's. It made sense with the theming of people giving themselves over thoughtlessly to internet technology crazes leading to them becoming drones. Delete was defitely a cybus era catchphrase.
