Couldn't you just remove it with ADB?
I think someone mentioned this is in the Playstore services stuff that’s hardwired in to the platform. Which means if a device is unrooted you can possibly do:
$ adb shell 'pm disable --user 13 com.google.android.gms'.I think I read somewhere it’s normally 13, and that’s what worked for me. Thanks for the 'list users' command.. that confirmed it on my phone.
