Anyway, I understand that neither you nor Felix like my suggestion from comment 42 ... note that with systemd-boot the ESP will be a much more important piece of the Linux installation, and not mounting it under Linux at all just won't work, AFAIU.
I don't expect to live long enough to see grub2-efi no longer supported. (In reply to Martin Wilck from comment #42)
Mario/Felix, have you considered to install just any bootloader but leave the option "Update NVRAM entry" switched off? I think this might just do what you want (not certain though).
It's neither KISS nor green, having bootloaders on every installation in multiboot environments. Multiple bootloaders offer an unnecessary avenue for a spontaneous appearance of some bug that causes a heap of hurt and lost time fo fix, meanwhile wasting bandwidth and media write cycles. Mine are not just PCs, but also, in a fashion, archives. Many installations are kept bootable well beyond their support lives, e.g.: # lsblk -o NAME,LABEL,MOUNTPOINT NAME LABEL MOUNTPOINT sda ├─sda1 ├─sda2 ├─sda3 boot03i256 /disks/boot ├─sda4 ├─sda5 05swapi256 [SWAP] ├─sda6 ├─sda7 ├─sda8 s131p08i256 /disks/s131 ├─sda9 home09i256 /home ├─sda10 s423p10i256 /disks/s423 ├─sda11 pub11i256 /pub ├─sda12 ulcl12i256 /usr/local ├─sda13 i256trixie ├─sda14 i256p14f40 /disks/f40 ├─sda15 mga6p15i256 ├─sda16 s123p16i256 ├─sda17 s122p17i256 ├─sda18 mga9p18i256 /disks/mga9 ├─sda19 i256p19sslo ├─sda20 i256p20f38 ├─sda21 s114p21i256 /disks/s114 ├─sda22 s132p22i256 ├─sda23 sTWp23i256 /disks/stw ├─sda24 i256bookworm ├─sda25 i256bullseye ├─sda26 ub22p26i256 ├─sda27 s155p27i256 /disks/s155 ├─sda28 s154p28i256 ├─sda29 i256p29f39 ├─sda30 s153p30i256 ├─sda31 ub20p31i256 ├─sda32 mga8p32i256 ├─sda33 ub24p33i256 /disks/ub24 ├─sda34 mga7p34i256 ├─sda35 s151p35i256 /disks/s151 ├─sda36 s156p36i256 / ├─sda37 fedovar ├─sda38 isos-i256 ├─sda39 rootantiX16 ├─sda40 antiX-i256 ├─sda41 s121i256 /disks/s121 └─sda42 mga4i256 /disks/mga4 # These are all pleasurably booting from 13.1's grub-0.97-194.1.2 with penguin=100 gfxboot, same as my numerous other PCs that continue legacy booting.
