FWIW, I moved pkexe out of /usr/bin and rebooted my VM. I found no
problems with the minimal testing I've done
So, I doesn't seem plasma-desktop uses pkexec in the normal course of
events.
I think you just need pkexec for admin things. like add a printer ...
you can remove the SUID-bit from pkexec as a temporary mitigation
chmod 755 /usr/bin/pkexec
