Sequence symbols cannot be deleted from a mscz file.
Selecting the symbols by mouse turns them blue. Pressing 'del' or 'ctrl-x' deselects the symbols, but leaves them in the score.

Right click->Select all similar elements->Del?
Right click->Select all similar elements->Del works. That is a good workaround for my case.
I think it depends on the Multimeasure Rest
2.1 version / Windows10
1) Create five measures for any instrument
2) Select measure 3 and double-click on any symbol of the repeats & jumps palette:
eg Segno, Coda, Fine, D.S, etc. - except "measure repeat"/first symbol and barlines/last symbols.
3) Press "M"
- The test file at this step: test cut repeat.mscz
4) Select the symbol -> Cut
First result: Failure, the symbol remains
5) Undo
Result: crash
A bit surprised to find that this issue apparently simple / basic (minimal steps) is already active in former versions, 2.0.3, 2.0.2 and 2.0.1 and possibly more.
So, a bit of history ... :)
Until the beginning of September 2014, the segnos, codas etc did not automatically break the mmrests: #31436: Segno et al do not display at start of mmrest
This was fixed with this nightly / commit: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/1269/files
The deletion of these symbols - when the mmrests were displayed - was already not possible. Was it expected or not? I do not know (probably not?)
But the removal (or its attempt) of the symbols did not cause yet a crash. Another undo, and we go back to the step without the mmrests display.
- The crash after first undo occurs several months later, on February 25, 2015. (a month before the 2.0 release)
This nightly works (in the sense, no crash after undo): 781c5b7
Not the next one: 94ad084
And so, this is an unexpected side effect of this last mentioned nightly/commit.
It was to fix: #48561: Crash when toggling visibility of a line break over a multimeasure rest
This doesn't crash for me on undo but does crash on undo/redo.
The fix for this is here: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/4275.
Fixed in branch master, commit 6118f884d5
