How do I get the grub menu corrected?

Assuming the BLS conversion happened, look in /boot/loader/entries/ and remove any entries that don't correspond to installed kernels. If they aren't there, then you'll have to regenerate the grub config file.

Thank-you, Samuel.
What is "BLS conversion"?

Boot Loader Specification:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BootLoaderSpecByDefault

Instead of a monolithic config file with all the entries in it, there are now snippets for each entry in /boot/loader/entries/ and grub loads them from there to make the menu.

So the conversion should have happened automagically over 3 years ago. How can I verify that it did correctly happen?

You have the directory and files, so it happened.

Current kernels and /boot/loader/entries/ contents:
-----
-bash.7[~]: rpm -q kernel
kernel-6.2.14-200.fc37.x86_64
kernel-6.2.15-200.fc37.x86_64
-bash.8[~]: cd /boot/loader/entries/
-bash.9[entries]: ls -l
total 10

So I should delete the files for rescue, 6.2.10, and 6.2.12, right?

Yes.

Done.
I've been groping around in Fedora docs to see how to regenerate the grub config file.  If it's relevant, I found how to determine what firmware I have:
-----
-bash.14[entries]: [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS
BIOS
-bash.15[entries]:
-----
I also know I do not have BTRFS.

From what I see in the Fedora doc, is this my next step:
"grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg"?
If no, what?  ...or  is grub menu clean-up done?
