I could see it maybe being useful for certain large games that you only play occasionally, but…
That’d mean redownloading right when you actually want to play, which is a pain. Also, in ability to tell it to archive or un-archive something manually makes that situation even worse.
It feels like those “ram doublers” back in the day… Neat in theory, but just painful in reality. It puts a check mark on a sales pitch, but doesn’t actually help anyone.
Backups. I have apps that I specifically won’t update for X reasons, and I have titanium backup to manage the backups. If I didn’t need root to manage backing up and restoring individual apps then I’d only have one or two more use for root.
I haven’t tried it on 13 yet. I haven’t done a single software update on my pixel 4 for that very reason. All of the newer devices I’ve used aren’t rooted.
What would be the point?

Is titback still functional? Had many issues on A13
