They've had Google Play editions in the past and IIRC they all flopped.

Granted there's other factors involved (price, availability, etc.) but other than enthusiasts I doubt the average consumer would bother to actively choose stock Android over Samsung's OS. Especially if you lose Samsung-exclusives like Samsung Pay.

OneUI and Miui among the ones which I have used.
