Something I've learned from fifteen years of Windows, and several years of Android - Never, EVER delete system files unless you know EXACTLY what those files are for, and, more importantly, what DEPENDS upon those files. Deleting a jar for something you don't see youself ever using is a good way to soft-brick your kindle four months down the road, once you've forgotten what you deleted, and try opening one specific kindlet or book that depends explicitly upon something you forgot you ever deleted in the first place!

Nothing in the OS takes up so much space that it is essential to get rid of it to cram in more books. Or free up an imaginary % of CPU speed, because that's not how CPU's work.
