we have this command for primitives:

geo.deletePrims([geo.prims()])

But I didn't see one for points in the documentation.

You can use a list like: 
node = hou.pwd()
geo = node.geometry()
pointList = []

for point in geo.points():
    pointList.append(point)

geo.deletePoints(pointList)
you can also use a group of points. If you have a group of points called "blastGrp" you can delete those points like so: 
geo.deletePoints(blastGrp.points())
