On Samsung devices there is a function called Power saving. The user has the option to select which behaviors to block or reduce in order to save battery power when this mode is enabled. There is an additional setting called 'Limit apps and Home screen' which basically modifies or replaces the default launcher to have a black background and only have selected apps enabled in addition to liming background activity. On other (older) android OS versions and OEM skins (probably One UI too) this was called Emergency Power saving mode and it was separate from Power saving, but it's included under the same function.
If the com.sec.android.provider.badge package is removed, when enabling Power saving and this alternate Home function is enabled, the Launcher either crashes and the feature does not remain turned on through the quick function, or alternatively it will get turned on but no launcher elements are shown, only a black background. This stays until the user turns off Power saving. The user can still access the notification bar and open apps like the settings app. This issue has been present for a while I think.

You have a solution?
Do not remove the
com.sec.android.provider.badge

I don't see why mandatory logs for an issue like this would be needed but here it is I guess
