I had to set it to 'New', since it showed not to be an "opinion" after a
weekend of installations.

Among others, I had to install 24.04.1 to two different machines that so far 
only had W10 installed. After installation, both machines did not show any 
choice of OS at boot, and straightforwardly booted into kubuntu. 
In both cases I encountered a default grub of 

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR='Kubuntu'
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='quiet splash 
resume=UUID=b2e084d0-2cce-4cad-ba48-ed13be62e0b0'
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

"hidden" as style and "0" as timeout are as invasive as possible: "no selection 
menu" (by "hidden"), and no selection menu another time through 0 seconds of 
timeout. Just moving these parameters to "menu" and "10" brought up a proper 
grub boot selection menu in both cases. 
I can see no proper reason to forcibly EXCLUDE any chance to boot to the 
previously installed W10. That is what these two default setting unfortunately 
do. 
I reiterate my position that this is a bug, and the default settings ought to 
be selected such that - circumstances (UEFI, BOOT) allowing - the user can 
actually select between the OSes.
