I mean, it has been, for a long time, but this is not why. According to the article you can simply uninstall the app.
Bet you are going to have the app installed and scanned for every government service you want to use (including leaving the country).
Maybe but that is yet another problem that GOS won't solve.
Could I not just set up another profile in GOS with this app installed and switch to that profile when it's needed?
User profiles is an AOSP feature. It's not exclusive to GOS.
