Comment on Remove old iOS Simulator Runtimes that are not listed in Xcode
It would be wonderful if Xcode could make this issue clear to developers whenever a new version of Xcode is installed, when it prompts the user to install new components. I was unaware that Xcode was silently hoarding disk space, reported by System Settings > General > Storage only broadly as "System Data", with no other clues. I spent hours investigating why my disk was nearly full, and then eventually used Xcode > Settings > Components to recover 350 GB (!) of disk space I wasn't using.

Comment on Xcode inserts unexpected apostrophes into Markdown and XML files
Thanks for checking if there was a way to disable this behavior. I checked too and didn't see anything. Unfortunately, I believe that this issue would not be addressed if I submitted it as feedback. My memory is that this bug was introduced at least 3 years ago. My understanding is that as a rule, the Xcode team doesn't prioritize fixing bugs that aren't characterized as regressions relative to the previous Xcode release.
