I’ll bet if you logged in as root yourself, you could remove them.

But apparently, in Android the owner of the phone isn’t allowed to log in as root and fix problems. Who designed this wonderful operating system?

Then how does the nasty get access? I could see this being a problem if the user rooted his Android device, but if not...

You can, but that requires a lot more knowledge and skills than most people have. Not something your random everyday user can do.
