For the user group removal configuration, please remove autopatrolled because that user group does not exist on Outreach Wiki:
'+outreachwiki' => [ 'bureaucrat' => [ 'sysop' ], ],
After consideration, as bureaucrats have the technical ability to remove importer rights (but not grant it), you might want to consider removing this (to only allow stewards to grant and remove it) because Outreach is not listed on the Meta page for the importer user group.

I don't think this is completed yet.
Please change the $wgRemoveGroups configuration for +outreachwiki:
'+outreachwiki' => [ 'bureaucrat' => [ 'sysop' ], ],
The code will only allow bureaucrats on Outreach Wiki to remove only administrator rights locally.
There is no clear community consensus to implement changes to importer usergroup , as description of task and community discussion is not conclusive. to make any further configuration changes there should be clear instructions either (1) allowing bureaucrats to grant importer role to a user, or (2) remove ability from bureaucrat usergroup to remove a user in importer role on wiki
I posted this discussion to the village pump, proposing to no longer allow bureaucrats to remove (and not grant) importer rights. A week and a day has passed without anyone commenting, so there is no objection either. Please implement those changes as I suggested in the initial task, thank you.
