RACF A/S can be easily stopped using STOP command (not an MVS STOP, it is @STOP). It also can be started again as well. The only cost is "address space unavailable" issue.
Of course *properly protected* RACF db cannot be moved or deleted, due to lack of authorities. No one should have even READ to this profile. BTW: VSAM dataset can be read very early - see IODF file. Is it pure VSAM access method? Who cares!
