I have narrowed down the cause of incessant crashing of my Mac .. to

Some quick searching reveals that there maybe an issue with SIMBL and
MacOS 10.14 or greater (I’m on 11.1, on an iMac late 2015), and most
articles suggest uninstalling by manually removing a list of files.
Has anyone seen this? Does anyone know if it’s safe to just delete
files associated with SIMBL?
SIMBL is a long-obsolete plugin manager, commonly used for Safari
plugins several years ago. Such plugins have been disabled for the last
several versions of MacOS, so you can safely delete any file associated
with it.
