Yes, that tree is quite tall and is clipping us hard in the spring and fall; it's causing some minor, short duration clipping on summer mornings also.

I sometime wish the roof was a steeper pitch. I've noticed that my neighbor's system on a steep pitch stays cleaner than mine. Mine tends to collect dirt and dust, especially along the bottom third.

I've looked into trimming the tree; I surely don't want to kill it and I keep hearing about how bad "topping" is for them. It also is out competing several fruit trees in the front yard, so maybe it really does need to be cut back drastically??

Quite a dilemma. And definitely a "Cadillac Problem".
