Yoast, Rankmath, and the other "SEO" enhancers are totally 100% fine as far as google is concerned. They actually prefer it.
These plugins make the site more understandable to the search engines and help you optimize your content so it's more searchable.
Wordpress ain't bad without it. But Google has a lot of features that Wordpress can't natively take advantage of.
