I wasn't aware of the potential problems. Funny that Ubuntu's
documentation still

They are on a "default" use case, but if you're using systemd-boot you are
responsible for configuring a nice way to keep only the last kernel images

I believe you mean ESP (EFI System Partition), and from my point of view
(I don't known any case where one should need more) 128MiB is enough with a

stored on the ESP. But anyway 500MB looks like overkill.
