Thanks for the report, @jomonthomaslobo. Currently, this is the expected behavior for those feature cards on the performance page and each of the plugins can still be deactivated and deleted using the normal Plugins screen at wp-admin/plugins.php.

The purpose of the feature cards on the Performance Settings screen is to help users find and install all of the available feature plugins that are being maintained by the WordPress Performance Team, not to duplicate all of the functionality of the plugin install screen. However, we are currently tracking improvements the onboarding flow in #1032 and making this more clear could be a possible improvement.

Since this really isn't a bug, I'm going to close this issue, but will leave a reference in the Onboarding ticket to see what can be done.
