Is it possible to remove Firefox Sync code?

Is it possible to remove Firefox Sync codes, UI codes and its underlying codes?

Since I can't log in to Firefox Sync/Account, it could be a good idea to get it rid.

JFYI: It is possible to log-in into Firefox Sync/Accounts by disabling Firefox user agent compatibility mode in about:config or to connect old-style Sync by manually setting prefs, but there's no UI for it.

Interesting! I was wondering why this didn't work (yet). Thanks for the pointer there; it's probably possible to use a useragent override in that case to make it work out of the box.
