Careful, Google is currently forcing apps to migrate from SafetyNet to PlayProtect!
SafetyNet is used by tons of security theater apps like banking 2FA. It is an API of play services.
PlayProtect is basically the same but you have to talk to it though google play. This is a blatant move by google to make exactly what OP is suggesting impossible, and means that if you do this, you may soon see many apps break that you are forced to use.

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I use a mix of opensource and closed source apps, so I would keep it disabled till something breaks.
But thank you for the heads up.

My phone reports that the Google play store hasn't logged any battery usage all day. Is it active for other users?
Do you really think it says the truth? I think I saw such systems lying in the past so can't believe them no more.
