cough cough hey EU you hearing this shit?

If you for whatever reason do not want the security benefits offered by SIP, you can turn it off.

Of course, doing so just to get rid of Apple Music would tend to be a bit crazy.

I'd say having to turn off System Integrity Protection as a prerequisite to uninstalling a music player is crazy. Spoken as someone who likes MacOS and Apple Music.

The Apple Music thing bothers me and adds friction to my life every single day that I use MacOS.

We're on a tech forum where everyone here is aware (or at least can understand) how SIP is useful for the security model on MacOS. But for plenty of people with this problem, SIP is only the thing you learn can disable so you can immediately make your life a little better.

The crazy ones are Apple here, since this problem should not require disabling SIP to fix.
