Since /var should contain only files that can be safely removed,

While I agree with your change, this statement is false. /var is for any files
which are variable. Files which can be safely removed belong to /var/tmp and
/var/cache.

Though when removed, the application should remain functional and just
recreate it automatically, right?

Yes.

Authselect would require user intervention.

Yes.

Ok, how about phrasing it:

Removing these files would reduce authselect functionality, user would need to run 'authselect select --force' to restore it. This however conflicts with purpose of /var which should contain only data that do not affect functionality when removed.


Thanks,
Pavel
