I don't think it works like that. clearsnapshot --all would remove all
snapshots. Here is an example:

$ ls -l
/ss/xx/cassandra/data/ww/a-5bf825428b3811eabe0c6b7631a60bb0/snapshots/

total 8

drwxr-xr-x 2 cassandra cassandra 4096 Apr 30 23:17 dropped-1588288650821-a

drwxr-xr-x 2 cassandra cassandra 4096 Apr 30 23:17 manual

$ nodetool clearsnapshot --all

Requested clearing snapshot(s) for [all keyspaces] with [all snapshots]

$ ls -l
/ss/xx/cassandra/data/ww/a-5bf825428b3811eabe0c6b7631a60bb0/snapshots/

ls: cannot access
/ss/xx/cassandra/data/ww/a-5bf825428b3811eabe0c6b7631a60bb0/snapshots/: No
such file or directory

$
