To convince myself 100% that it's not some configuration stuff-up and the problem really is what I think it is, I unplugged/removed all drives except for the single 2Tb NVMe, wiped it, and did a full clean install of 20.3 from Live USB using the default install option where it does everything including creating the EFI partition. On rebooting, no boot device was found. It's just not there as far as UEFI is concerned (doesn't even appear in the BIOS boot order config, so I think my earlier experiment that still had all drives connected and I saw "ubuntu" in the boot order must have been seeing the EFI on a different disc).
I think there is no solution to my dilemma since (a) I simply can't boot from NVMe since it wasn't even invented when my motherboard was designed, and (b) booting from HDD requires the OS to be on the HDD since the NVMe is only visible once the OS is loaded and running. I see no alternative but to buy a new SSD and clone the temporary HDD to it (at least until I'm forced to replace the motherboard/CPU/RAM some day, but aside from this issue it's otherwise still working perfectly well for me).
