I can't believe I never posted about this one.
You guys know Delete Part? This feature is nothing like that.
Use it on really gross imports with a billion objects you don't care about. Probably don't use it for any other reason.

What happened to the meme names?!?

@ry_gb I have decided to be professional and make my scripts discoverable for other users. I even published this one with a user manual.
Derek Van Allen | Engineering Consultant | MeddlerGood idea! It would be nice, if the built-in delete part feature had a reverse gear, though:
To toggle between delete and keep.
@martin_kopplow it's such an obvious addition to the feature that I suspect that it doesn't for philosophical reasons. Using a keep part feature enables a lot of disgusting workflows that are otherwise covered by Derive or using an assembly. I do think the only true valid use case for a feature like this is import cleanup.
