Following Google Play's statements on image access permissions, I remove READ_MEDIA_IMAGE and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO in AndroidManifest but I always have the error message

Google Api Error: Invalid request - All developers requesting access to the photo and video permissions are required to tell Google Play about the core functionality of their app

I even tried to remove them explicitly :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES" tools:node="remove" /><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VIDEO" tools:node="remove" />

Has anyone else had this issue? Do you know what I should do?
