What exactly do you mean when you say "clobbers"? The intended behavior
is for ubiquity to reuse an existing ESP that it detects rather than
unnecessarily creating a second one. The word "clobber" to me implies
that it has deleted the existing contents of the ESP; that should not
happen and would be a bug.
But the fact that the detected existing ESP is on a different drive than
the Ubuntu root partition is not obviously disqualifying for us to reuse
that ESP. The ESP does not have to be on the same disk as the root
partition, and it's not an obvious requirement that disks be independent
from one another in the system.
