Just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on a NUC replacing 19.10. The aforementioned issue has changed and it appears whatever was changed post 5.3.0-24 was done intentionally.

The machine finishes post and the normal Intel NUC splash screen appears with the F Keys displayed. The screen stays longer than before with the F Keys slowly fading away to be replaced with only the Intel NUC splash and the new Ubuntu logo. Both sharing the same screen. Then continuing on to the normal desktop if the auto login is enabled. The entire process about 7 seconds.

I don't think this is a bug as I reported it. Folks that actually work on the kernel would know more than I but this certainly looks like the latest kernel was designed to use and control the Intel splash screen.

On the Z77 using legacy boot the screen just stays black and boots in the same amount of time.
