Also what (if any) differences there may be in the initramfs and vmlinuz files between the two boot options. then we have the various .efi files with little or no documentation. So we are left with anaconda ....

I don’t think migrating from a legacy bootloader to UEFI (on the same hardware) is a common enough process to document.

I do notice you have a kernel listed with a .efi extension, and I’ve never seen that before.

Typically on a UEFI C7 system, all the kernels and initrds are in /boot.  Only the EFI executables and supplementary grub files are in the /boot/efi volume (normally /boot/efi/EFI/CentOS). I don’t know where you got that kernel efi file.
