I agree this should be fixed, but it's also not a priority. You can
disable them in the Extensions app (sudo apt install gnome-shell-
extension-prefs).

** Description changed:

  I like the Ubuntu themed GNOME desktop but I don't like dash-to-dock.
- As the preinstalled extensions, especially gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock 
are not deactivable and not removable atomic (they are hard dependcies of 
ubuntu-desktop), the only way to remove them is to rename the extensions 
folder. This will also restore the dock with every update of the 
gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package, as it creates this folder.
+ As the pre-installed extensions, especially gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock

package, as it creates this folder.
  
- Therfore, we should remove the hard dependcies.
+ Therefore, we should remove the hard dependencies.
