I'm sure they are also trying to lead people to use their apps instead of Google's, but it's not like they stop you from using Google apps and services.

The problem with the apps are that even if you don't use them they are still running. Samsung runs a lot of syncing and push apps that constantly reach out to servers so they keep your phone active. Same for Google but now you have two sets of apps doing that.
Only way to stop or get rid of system apps is to root.
