Just like everyone else said, let them die off, won't impede growth. I see secondary branches peeking out at your first set of true leaves. That's good. Give the plant 3 or 4 more inches before planing plant structure.

Hey 👋 I would not suggest to remove them as they will fall off by its own. The leaves save some nutrients, which the plant will relocate once’s she realizes that there are not needed at the bottom part. But it’s up to you🤷🏼

Why remove them? What harm are they doing? Why defoliate at all? At the moment, those two leaves are making a good percentage of the energy your plant needs to grow............remove them and there is less energy for the plant to continue growing. Just because they are single bladed leaves does not mean that they are not "true" leaves!
