Adding more context:
The category.py has an option to move category pages from one title to another (rename) and so on.
When the page is moved, the old page normally has a category redirect template added which helps in identifying where the category has moved for users who are used to the old category name. The -noredirect is useful for users with admin rights who can delete the category directly rather than adding the category redirect template.

@Steenth: hm isn't this already done by default and may be overridden by '-nodelete' option?
Comment Actions
Yes this '-noredirect' behaviour is already done by default and may be switched off by '-nodelete'. Should be verified whether it works as expected.

The requested option already exists as the default behaviour. Use -nodelete to prevent it.
