instead of having to disable each tip individually in removedTips = []

It looks like you have misunderstood how the config works. It is a namespace blacklist, not an ID blacklist. The namespace is the part of the ID before the : character, for example tips:swamp_slimes and tips:creeper_cat both have the tips namespace. So simply removing the namespace tips would remove all the default tips.

Additionally, if this did accept individual IDs your entries would also be incorrect as none of them have a namespace which is a mandatory part of the ID.

removedNamespaces = ["animal_growing", "arthopods", "baby_panda_slimeball", "barrel", "biome_bonemeal", "biome_fishing", "blaze_snowball", "boat_jump", "boat_passenger", "cooked_drops", "creeper_cat", "creeper_drops_disc", "crouch_blocks", "deflect_ghast_fireballs", "dog_health", "dog_rotten_flesh", "east", "fishing_resources", "fossils", "fortress_triangulation", "four_eggs", "gravity_torch", "iron_golem_heal", "job_site_dimension", "lava_fuel", "lure_animals", "mooshroom_lightning", "nether_lava", "nether_sponge", "note_block_instrument", "piglin_gold", "poison_immune", "scrap_nuggets", "shulker_armor", "shulker_golem", "smoke_bees", "string_wool", "swamp_slimes", "turtle_shell", "undead_damage", "undead_helmet", "villager_sweat", "wandering_invis", "water_grass", "witch_conversion", "wooden_tool_fuel", "zombie_armor"]
