Ok, thanks! So then I guess I've overdone it with deletes in this PR for dtlaunch? Since most of the variables are now declared with let statements within the block scope of the app, those do not have to be deleted and will be handled by the garbage collector?

If you want to use a block scope (
{ code here ... }) to let the garbage collector do it's job, you need to use let/const and not function/var, because function/var would be defined in the global scope. Everything defined in a block scope with var/function would need to be cleaned up manually before switching.
