Is using the rm -P command safe on Macs with an SSD

Solution 1:

...is using this command [rm -P] safe on Macs with an SSD, or can this cause damage since it is technically overwriting data on the SSD which causes wear leveling

It’s perfectly safe. You couldn’t really write enough data for it to matter. It’s also completely unnecessary as whatever you’ve deleted is instantaneously “gone.” The block isn’t really overwritten, it’s just that depending on the SSD, the drive will only return zeros or random garbage when a read command is made. It’s also marked as “unused” rather than “deleted” so it will likely be overwritten with legitimate data quickly.
