As has been covered before, I believe you are misinterpreting the documentation.

The documentation is advising you against putting frameworks, static
libraries, resources, or other pieces of what could rightly be
considered your app bundle inside your App Support directory. Plugins,
licenses, and other non-integral yet critical portions of your app
belong in App Support.

Library/Caches is for stuff that could be blown away at any moment.
