Hmm, so if grub would also install itself into /efi/boot/bootx64.efi

Is there any reason why Fedora doesn't create that file?
Yes - it's not intended to be a bootloader, it's intended to be
something that handles setting up boot options again. We (a) haven't
written it, and (b) need to find a way to co-exist with other operating
systems that write the same file.
