Can I get rid of the Noto font families -- they can't be deleted via FontBook, or deleted from the System library

Can I get rid of the Noto font families -- most are in languages that are not useful to me. They can't be deleted via FontBook, or deleted from the System library. They are taking up a bunch of acreage on my fonts menu, and are a pain to scroll through.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.2

These new fonts are Apple OSX system fonts that are auto-installed with the Catalina update. They can't be turned off in Font Book or managed through Creative Cloud applications. They aren't searchable and therefore unable to be manually deleted either.

Hi, hours trying to delete this. I tried everything on Terminal but with no success. 

But I made something that's maybe will help you... I selected all the fonts that matters with a star in photoshop. Took me 3 minutes and now I only see that selection...
