   Manifest files are removed when there are no longer any snapshots referring 
to them, not when they are too old. For example, a manifest file might be 10 
days old, but the current Snapshot may still refer to that file.
   
   The JSON files are different,they are not actually tracked or removed by 
expired snapshots. At least if I can remember correctly. They could be removed 
by remove orphan files though, which would remove all metadata.json files not 
listed in the current metadata.json
