Google Play Protect is as turned off as it can and it uninstalled (deleted) a cracked app today (March 28th 2024) with no way to stop it, or have it ignore that app.
Would changing the package name of the app not have google check it vs. the store apps, is there any other way to stop this, other than disabling the Google Play Store app ?

That sucks. Fortunately i haven`t came across that problem. It might be because i disabled everything Google-related except for Play Services, maybe that helps.
I used an application called Hail to disable system applications
