Manual deletion of Thunderbird profile

macOS 15.5, TB 141. By design, when one "Removes" a profile without deleting the data, the profile no longer appears in Profile Manager, but it is still in the profile folder. Thus, is it safe to manually delete a "removed" profile if one later decides it is not needed?

Thank you.
