If you can say that you've touched all the sstate you'll need then the
find trick is sufficient.  I use it on our CI to prune any sstate that
hasn't been touched in a month, for example.

The script is more powerful and can selectively save or destroy
things, but can potentially be more complicated than just nuking
anything old.
