Not sure what you mean SafetyNet being triggered when uninstalling apps? Though I don't know what OEMs are doing on their devices, Pixel doesn't come with Facebook pre-installed and YouTube is pre-installed on the system image so you can't really uninstall it.

Maybe this is some specific OEM doing something odd on their device? Which device do you see it on? What is the experience caused by SafetyNet being triggered?

This wasn't direct or serious.
What I mean is unlocking the capability to even uninstall these apps first, unlocking bootloader and deleting the apps from system partition.

Ah okay! I don't think you will ever get the ability to delete things from the system partition, because (1) that is always read-only (only modified by the boot loader and that is important), (2) it would mean factory reset couldn't return you to the original state, and (3) even if you did, you couldn't use the space because it would only free that space in the system partition, not data partition.

OEMs are encouraged to use Play Auto Install instead.
