Bulk Crap Uninstaller (or BCUninstaller) is a free (as in speech) program uninstaller. It excels at removing large amounts of applications with minimal user input. It can clean up leftovers, detect orphaned applications, run uninstallers according to premade lists, and much more! Even though BCU was made with IT pros in mind, by default it is so straight-forward that anyone can use it.

Maybe it's like mobile operating systems where those apps are part of an immutable area and can at most be hidden. However, given how incredibly slow OS updates are on modern Macs, that would be surprising.
