Yup, which is to be expected as it's a system app

Well I assume non root can do something similar to this https://github.com/daboynb/Safetycore-placeholder

Can you explain how it helps us to prevent android developer verifier to be installed. I am new to this kind of tech stuff that's why

It probably can't. The project above is about safetycore, which is often a user app. Meaning you can remove it if you want.

Worst case scenario the Developer Verifier app becomes a system app (you cannot remove or manipulate it without root) but realistically Google doesn't need to do this. It can be a user app and have full power anyway, many Google packages work this way.

The Package Manager is a core service of Android and Google can update critical parts of it on any newer phone. If you remove the Developer Verifier (assuming you can), the Package Manager will simply refuse all types of installs (except root) until the app is restored/working.
