com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox is already in the list and has a much more comprehensive description.

I would add that (on legacy Android versions) the pack also provided Voice Typing functionality, which may impact accessibility.

On newer versions, Speech Services alone can provide the voice-to-text feature.

IDK the exact Android versions, but it's between 8 and 12. It's A12
