What are the contents of the "Other Users & Shared" folder on MacBook Air, Model nr. A2337 running Sequoa 5.0 (24A335)

According to Systems Settings | Storage, this category of files contains 3.88 GB. I am the onpy user of this Mac so why do I need to keep this data?

In Finder, Go menu > Go to Folder and enter "/Users" (without quotes). Are there any user folders but yours? There will also be a Shared folder, what is in there? Some application installers give you the option to install for just the active user or for all users, and selecting the latter option installs components in the Shared folder even if there's just one user.
