I can select the documents in the Recent folder and hit Move to
Trash, or drag them there, and while that clears them from the
Recents folder, it also deletes them from their original
location-- and I don't want to do that.

So....how to clear (not delete) documents from the Recents Folder?
The "Recents" folder is basically just a system-made "smart
folder", so the files listed there are not taking up any extra
space and you cannot clear them. It's another useless and buggy
gimmick Apple added to overbloat MacOS.

If you really need such a feature, you would be better off making
your own "smart" folder to list files opened within the last X days
so that you can define the timeframe.

Privacy from whom, exactly?
You know...them ;-)
