I'm not an expert in fonts, but the effect of removing such part from the font
wouldn't disable some advanced font capabilities ?

Some extreme and complex usage of that Maghrebi font is the writing of whole
Muhammadi Qur’an, with the narration of Warsh on the authority of Nafi’, and I
think (not sure) it was primarily done on Apple software to benefit from those
complex font features.

I tested the modified font, and it seems to work fine both on LibreOffice and
Microsoft Office on Windows10 and Linux(Manjaro KDE), but I have no way to test
if that removed part has any effect on availability of font features on Mac.
