Removing a Country from Scoping in SAP Business ByDesign Business Configuration

Hello! Hope all is well.

I'm having an issue with the Business Configuration for our Implementation Project with regards to scoping. Initially we had the In-Scope Countries listed as UAE only, but an error was made, and France was added into the scope. Ever since then, countless attempts were made to remove France, but to no avail.Every attempts results with the same Error, that the data is inconsistent in either the productive data, or the fine-tuning data.

In terms of the solution being accepted, the Design is the only thing that is accepted, the solution hasn't been accepted yet. My question is, is there a way to remove the country in the first place, or are we stuck with having France in our scope? I'd appreciate any input on the matter.

Thanks in advance.
