I had to set up Grub2Win in order for these shenanigans to stop. Never had problems with dual booting again afterwards

For others who were interested in this like I was.

Be aware that systems with secure boot enabled are not supported and the author has stated will likely never be supported due to the hassle of getting it signed by a trusted authority.

not a huge issue but, still an annoyance

To be fair, Secure Boot is actively hostile toward dual-booting in the first place. Worst of all, it might seem to work for a while then suddenly start causing errors sometime later.

Yeah, I was just more so saying it because a lot of the larger distributions are trusted so you can use secure boot, so if you go into that expecting your OS will be supported and then find out post fact it is not might cause a surprise
