Could you build this?

No Requires low-level native macOS development using direct Darwin POSIX calls, APFS inode inspection, safe permission handling, and Metal hardware acceleration.

What it would actually take: A native macOS app written in Swift/Objective-C/C++ leveraging POSIX filesystem APIs (lstat, fts) for high-performance directory traversal without triggering CloudKit/FSEvents dehydrations. Core challenges include safe trash-first sandboxing, precise cache heuristics across diverse developer tooling, and Metal-accelerated interactive squarified treemap rendering. Building this demands deep macOS internals and Apple filesystem systems programming expertise.
