This is because of your firmware, as it gets recreated regardless of
how you delete it. Your firmware simply adds every EFI image folder to
the boot manager (supposedly to prevent people from breaking their BM
and ending up with an unbootable system...).

In other news:
I just confirmed that when installing with updates enabled one will
get the correct setup right away (also no EFI/kubuntu/ lingers around
like in the upgrade scenario).
