Is it safe to disable all permissions of system apps using shizuku and permission manager x ?

do restricing permission to system apps cause bootloop ? Or any crash in the system that eventually lead to a factory reset to make my device usable again ?

Is there any guides available for this ?

I would recommend not touching system apps unless you have a very good reason for doing so. And be willing to risk breaking your device.
