I mean you can “remove” it. It won’t show on your home screen anymore.
But under the covers the code that does all the heavy lifting will be the Safari code. Firefox on iOS will get new features when we Safari does, because that’s how (it’s forced) to work.

Don’t worry about the last part of my comment. I’m happy to explain this, I’m just tired of the debates of “policy X is an antitrust issue.” Or “They’re doing it to kill PWAs.” Or “The JIT rule is just an excuse.”
The debate has existed since iOS 2.0 in 2008. So 14 years of roughly the same arguments. And I’m just tired that it’s impossible to talk about Safari or iOS or Apple without the exact same argument happening. Like elsewhere in these comments.
That’s the discussion I don’t want to have. Your question is totally fair.
