seems I failed to mention that I shoot RAW+ (camera saves both formats)
Yes, most of us do. I personally see no reason to shoot jpgs, they are part of my processing - the final step - since I don’t much care for Lightroom.
jpeg are easier to review on various file browsers
Well that depends on what sort of RAM you have. But I have never found that necessary. Reviewing RAW files is only onerous when the folder has a couple hundred of them and they haven’t been opened in quite a while. My computer keeps enough information about them to make opening them relatively fast. Certainly it makes hardly any difference with a couple dozen files.
I use Adobe Bridge to browse files. Have you tried it? It comes with Photoshop. I use it in “filmstrip” mode, and adjust the windows in the Bridge display so that there is a very large one for the image and a strip of thumbnails across the bottom of my screen.
From Bridge simply hit delete and whatever you happen to have selected will be in the trash. I don’t see any issue, this is the normal way one throws stuff out.
The good thing about using Bridge is that it permits you to see a reasonable size display of the image so you know what you’re discarding.
Quite honestly, when I got through a shoot I view it in Bridge, mark the things I want to process with three stars and open them in the RAW converter, process them and save them as tifs. Then I hit the Done button and go back to Bridge, filter out everything without stars, select them all and trash them in one quick poke at the delete key.
