That's not an item to just empty; rather instead, its anything not exactly in specific categories

Items often used by the System regularly. In Catalina & later, space management is different.

See Optimize Storage, as part of this newer info..

Also watch out when going into storage drive Containers, etc.

Good luck & happy trails!☀️🌻
