No, indeed not, I missed the EFI wrinkle. We are going to have some fun
with that. For an EFI install you want to have grub installed, not
grub2. Remove the grub2 package and ensure the grub or grub-efi package
is installed (grub-efi has been split off from grub in a recent update).

I removed grub2, updated grub, installed grub-efi and the system still boots.
Thank you!


Well,  the latest update wants to replace grub with grub2 and update grub-efi.

I hesitate to execute the update, will EFI systems still boot?
