>Since when system-installed apps can be removed by a user without rooting or replacing the system

Why are you adding this restriction? Rooting or replacing the system are totally valid of getting rid of these things.




These are totally out of reach of 99,99% phone users skills, and providing services for that would quickly be outlawed.


A good 50% of phone users could probably do it without assistance, and people can always have someone else do it. Rooting a phone is really not difficult, simpler than installing windows xp used to be.


Most people could probably ride a unicycle, it's just another thing that's not going to happen.


You have unlock the bootloader. The govt could easily ban that.
