I believe MdeModulePkg UiApp is used, because the following lines appear in
MdeModulePkg.dsc:

MdeModulePkg/Application/UiApp/UiApp.inf
MdeModulePkg/Universal/BdsDxe/BdsDxe.inf

However, in IntelFrameworkModulePkg.dsc, there is the line:

IntelFrameworkModulePkg/Universal/BdsDxe/BdsDxe.inf

So does this mean I can or cannot remove UiApp? Can I simply comment out
the line in MdeModulePkg.dsc?

Thanks,
Zach
