If this can happen, is it possible that once mandatory developer verification comes into effect, all 3rd party apps will be uninstalled at first and require a re-install?

Concerning this specific case, NFCGate is a tool on which malware (family) titled NGate by ESET is based, thus likely causing a false positive.

Oh, and no bypass is available anymore (aside from disabling play protect):

    There are newer stingray type devices that are effective against 3G and 4G devices as well, and I think there’s one that’s coming out soon or has already been released that works on 5G to some extent but not completely. I haven’t read up on it fully lately, but there’s definitely more out there than just 2G/3G devices.
