Comment (by enderandrew):

 Replying to [comment:8 boonebgorges]:
 > enderandrew's comments underscore the need for better messaging and
 documentation. Because of bp-default's integration with WP's native menu
 system, the proper way to remove an item from the top-level nav will be to
 create a custom nav menu, NOT to delete it. We might want to (re)consider
 a meta box on the WP page edit screen that warns users not to delete, or
 something like that.

 Would it be possible when BP creates the pages, that they create them as
 hidden pages that don't show up in the nav menu?

 To be honest, I'm not aware of any means of keeping a page from showing up
 in the nav menu unless you replace it with a custom menu.
