Not strictly EU, but I’m rather annoyed that this archaic feature has to be included in virtually every model of suitcase in the market.
Alternatively, anyone know how to remove it without destroying the suitcase?

Bit of a follow up question: what exactly is your goal? Remove the lock quickly/cheaply or to actually have a secure/sturdy suitcase?
Is it in case it gets stolen or to avoid accidental damage?
I guess overall just why is having the lock an issue for you? I can think of many reasonable ones (I don’t like them either) just want to know which one it is for you.
I’d like to find a model or two that doesn’t have TSA lock. Let’s just say I’m not too fond of the idea that some randos can get access to the master key that opens my suitcase.
Cool, in that case using super glue on the lock should block that up enough that people won’t be able to use it any more, and it should be much cheaper than buying anything new.
When it comes to keeping people out though, do keep in mind that no realistically usable suitcase will prevent access once someone has access to some basic tools and privacy.
If one have any kind of basic power tool, nothing can stop them. But odds are, I’d know if attempts’ been made. The same cannot be said for that TSA lock.
