Here’s the current man page <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemd-tmpfiles.html>: If this option is passed, all files and directories marked for creation by the tmpfiles.d/ files specified on the command line will be deleted. Specifically, this acts on all files and directories marked with f, F, d, D, v, q, Q, p, L, c, b, C, w, e. If this switch is used at least one tmpfiles.d/ file (or - for standard input) must be specified on the command line or the invocation will be refused, for safety reasons (as otherwise much of the installed system files might be removed). Hard to see how that can delete anything you haven’t asked for.
