Then they shouldn't be in your trust root to begin with.  It's easy
enough to remove a CA source file from the system cert store and rebuild
it, although what to do is slightly different on each system.

That's CA pinning rather than certificate pinning.  It only makes sense
(to me anyway) if you expect to have multiple different certificates
that refer to that CA, so maybe if you have a local CA that you don't
want to advertise system-wide.
