System Data Hugging Space on IPhones

It is with great pain that Great Apple cannot solve the problem of system data hugging disk space. Many people are reporting this problem with their iPhone and Apple should not take it lightly. It is a serious problem. It has required me resetting my phone looking at all the security features linked to my iphone and authentication apps etc. It’s is absolute pain and it need not be like that.

“System data” has taken over my storage The system data portion of the storage on my iPhone 11 Pro keeps expanding to fill any space available. It is now up to 37 gigs. When I delete other data the system data just expands to fill the extra space. I went to the Apple store and had a Genius try to fix it. An update and system reset did not improve it at all. She explained that there’s nothing else to be done because there’s no way to tell what exactly is in the system data or how it got there, and no way to delete it. Can that be true? My phone is now useless and nothing can be done? Is there any reason to think a new phone won’t do the same thing?
