Using the wrong version in the "dnf remove" may have caused more problems:

bash.1[~]: dnf remove kernel-core-6.5.8-200.fc38.x86_64

You mentioned in a previous email that there was a rescue kernel. That one isn't tracked by any package. You can delete the files and the next kernel install will update it with the latest kernel. The grub entries are in /boot/loader/entries/ and you'll see one with "rescue" in the name.

bash.2[~]: rpm -qa kernel
kernel-6.5.5-200.fc38.x86_64
kernel-6.5.12-200.fc38.x86_64

I don't know what you mean about this not providing the information you need. That's the full version string there. Just change "kernel" to "kernel-core".

bash.3[~]:
-----
6.6.2-101 (the current kernel) is gone.

I'm saving this draft and rebooting to see what's now in the grub menu.
(reboot)
I'm back.
The grub menu has not changed; it still has the same 4 kernels and 2 memtests.

Curious: 6.6.2-101 seems to still be booting:

You only removed the "kernel" package which has nothing in it. Everything else is still there.

rpm -qa kernel-core
