For example, how can I make MapView, which is a 'struct' type conform to CLLocationManagerDelegate which requires a 'class' type for its protocol?

Code Block struct  MapView: UIViewRepresentable, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
    var coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D
    func makeUIView(context: Context) -> MKMapView {
        MKMapView(frame: .zero)
    }
    func updateUIView(_ uiView: MKMapView, context: Context) {
        let span = MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 0.0019, longitudeDelta: 0.0019)
        let region = MKCoordinateRegion(center: coordinate, span: span)
        uiView.setRegion(region, animated: true)
        uiView.mapType = .hybridFlyover
    }
}

You cannot. You need to define a class conforming to to CLLocationManagerDelegate, and use it in your MapView.
