Maybe I'm just ignorant as to how complex it seems to others, or to the installers of other distros. With Fedora, it honestly was as complex as Boot from USB > Run Installer > Select blank hard drive to install to > Keep clicking next > Done. That was honestly it, no bootloader messing, no UEFI messing, no nothing. Excluding boot/load times it'd be like a 30 seconds video guide.
Maybe the Ubuntu installer really was so bad that it overwrote boot entries by default, but I'm honestly mad if they fucked up that bad. As a power user that does fuck with my boot shit for fun, I don't think I've ever delved as far as it sounds like you have.
However, I certainly agree whatever the case, that just installing Linux will be simpler and easier.
