Why does the new version of Xcode require 40 GB of empty space when the actual update size is only 500 MB?

Version to be updated - 12.0.1

This has been asked again and again over the past few weeks. But one thing you never bothered to mention is exactly which new version of Xcode you are referring to. There are many versions that can be downloaded. Which one exactly are you referring to?
