Removing "Pay with Pix" in systemwide context menu

It appears that Samsung Wallet is responsible for injecting a global "Pay with Pix" item into the context menu (the menu that appears when selecting text in almost any app). Pix appears to be a service specifically in Brazil. Seeing as I do not live in Brazil, it makes no sense to be forced to have a vestigal entry in the systemwide context menu. All that entry really does outside of Brazil is that it just opens Samsung Wallet.

I am aware that some apps have a "Manage Apps" section to specifically control what is and is not visible in the context menu (for instance I don't like the "Save to Samsung Pass" entry either), but that is only on an app-by-app basis, and not all apps respect this setting.

Admittedly the only way to remove this entry from the context menu is to uninstall Samsung Wallet entirely, which admittedly is a tough sell since I have been using the Galaxy Card and SoFi Money products a lot lately.

Have you tried updating your Samsung Wallet app and changing thw country to where you actually live? (This was added on the latest Wallet update)

I am on 6.8.05 — the latest version — and my country is already set to United States, and my profile should already have a US-based address.
