Users without access to moderator tools privilege are not able to view deleted posts that they have authored in their saved lists

With reference to:

What happens if a post I saved has been deleted?

We will be preserving the existing behavior: If you have the access to moderator tools privilege, you will be able to see deleted posts in your saved lists. If you haven't earned this privilege yet, you will only be able to view deleted posts that you have authored.

However, I do not have the access to moderator tools privilege and I cannot view deleted posts that I have authored in my saved lists.

The following screenshot shows that I have two posts "Saved" to my "To review" list. One of them is a highly voted question (with a simple private note added) and the other is my own deleted answer (to another question).

Under the list title the phrase "1 saved item" appears and there is only one saved item in the list (the highly voted question). In the "Move to" dialog, the item text states "To review (2)" proving that my deleted post is present in the list but not visible to me.

This was only tested on Stack Overflow with deleted answer posts.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Assuming you are a user without the access to moderator tools privilege
2. Create a saved list, e.g. "To review"
3. Add any (not deleted) question or answer to this "To review" saved list
4. Add any deleted answer of yours to this "To review" saved list (deleted answers can be accessed by scrolling down to the bottom of the Answers tab)
5. Click on the Saves button and click on "To review" in MY LISTS
6. Click on the three vertical dots menu button located at the top right of an item in the list
7. Click on "Move to..."
8. The number of saved items under the "To review" list title on the underlying page will be less than the number in brackets in the dialog next the "To review" list title
