I've got 905 dating back to 2010.  I wonder how many more cases there are
of potentially unwanted files.  And what is the effect on the system.
Eating up inodes?  Or isn't that a problem these days...

The other thing I wonder about is why I have 26 old kernels with, of
course, the same number of System.map, abi, config and initrd files in
/boot, and Header files squirrelled away somewhere.  At one time you used
to be able to set the number you wanted to keep.
