Ask HN: Is Firebase Analytics a Ranking Factor in the Play Store?

I couldn't find anything about that and try asking this question one more time, since the last time I couldn't get an answer.

I want to protect the privacy of my users as much as possible and I don't need Firebase Analytics to get insights, so I'm thinking of removing it. It'd be a problem tho if it's a secret ranking factor in the Play Store. I already know that AdWord conversions won't work without it.

Does anyone of you know? :-) And if you don't know, what are your thoughts?
