   To always strive to add value...   
      
   As  many have stated already, there's only a per-app don't-delete-now but   
   delete-it-later concept in Android, where if the goal is to free up space,   
   one option is to use Device Care options (such as Settings > Battery and   
   device care > Storage) to clear cached data and unnecessary files.   
      
   While I hesitate to suggest "Files by Google" products, apparently it has a   
   duplicate finder & a large-file-size finder with its built-in "Clean" tab.   
      
   "Files by Google" also highlights unused apps and temporary files.   
      
   If the team wants to flesh out non-Google cleaners, this suggests some.
