Not mandatory if you know what you are doing and if you don't install software from unknown sources.
Needs confirmation but removing this package could change SELinux mode (enforcing by default)

Commands
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.spdclient
To put it back:
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.samsung.android.spdclient
Every removal listed here is per-user only: the system image is untouched, and the restore command puts the app back from the copy already on the device. Nothing is downloaded.
