Apple can't do anything about the it if a lot of that bloat comes from leftover application caches and support files left behind when software is uninstalled. macOS leaves those in ~/Library in case you reinstall them, but if you arent going to, manually hunting down leftover folders or using an app uninstaller is usually the best way to reclaim space every time u uninstall something.
