Description
This isn't a priority but it may be useful.
Google Maps Go apparently need Chrome to be installed (not sure if there are also other apps).
A dummy Chrome app that simply use the installed System WebView wolud be nice to avoid the real Chrome, maybe reusing the LineageOS browser that is a wrapper for the System WebView.
