chatgpt is telling me to rsync with...

sudo rsync -aAXv --delete
--exclude={"/home/bmike1/.cache","/home/bmike1/.local/share/Trash"} /home/
/media/$USER/rsync/

and to restore with:

sudo rsync -aAXv --delete
--exclude={"/home/bmike1/.cache","/home/bmike1/.local/share/Trash"}
/media/$USER/rsync/ /home/

the save stage ran correctly but will the restore run correctly?
