At the current price for SSDs even a pointless symlink becomes waste...

A high quality 1TB NVME SSD costs 164€ on Amazon right now.

For a 10 byte symlink, that costs one billionth of a euro.

This is like worrying about the money you lose when part of a glass of tap water evaporates.

Are you serious? A symlink is probably one of the smallest files you can possibly generate.
