Looking for candidate directories to delete as a short term solution to a space problem.
Directory <udeploy>/server/logs/store currently is the 6th largest file system in the tree. I understand it is an archive for logs so it would seem to be okay to delete it entirely and let it repopulate. Is this true?

That directory stores logs from agents running plugin steps. If you delete that, you will not be able to view step output from any historical deployments.
If you're OK with that as a consequence, then yes, you can delete that directory. Going forward, all new process requests would put their logs there and you'll be able to see them.
If you'd like, feel free to submit a feature request for compacting this directory - most of the space used here is overhead due to the large number of directories and small files, and we've been thinking about ways to shrink this.
