You're not freeing space by deleting files if they continue to exist in
snapshots, you can either;
- wait for snapshots to get rotated out and destroyed
- destroy unused snapshots, use `zfs send` to backup to external media
first?
- mount each snapshot, then remove the offending files from each; which
seems tedious, and prone to mistakes.
  c.f. `zfs diff` to find differences between snapshots
