I do it similarly, but I don't use "-exec", I rather pipe the results
of find into something like "xargs rm -f" for better performance.

Yes.

Just make very sure that you don't delete any archived WAL files
that you might still need - say, to resort to an older backup if
your most recent backups failed or the tape got eaten by mice
or whatever.
