Hi, old thread, Ive just posted a similar question:

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/identity-authentication/add-remove-external-guest-user-from-sp-site-behavour-in-azure/m-p/1096405/thread-id/1020

What I found interesting is that SP has the power to create a guest tenant but not the reverse. Seems odd that when deleting a User from an SP site the option isn't presented to remove the AD tenant. In addition any SP sites that are deleted should present the Guest User Tenants to be remove also..... if the Guest User Tenant is in use on another Site then a simple warning/pop up to say "not removed as in use on other Sites"

One issue Ive thought of is the 1:5 ratio of LicenseUser:GuestUser…… how did you overcome this? Or did you keep paying for additional Tenant Licenses?
