I've hated that behavior for years, and am appalled to learn this it still works that way.

Its worse now. Grub-efi cant boot Windows 8.1+ directly. It instead boots Window's Bootloader which then handles all of the bootable windows partitions.

It looks okay if you only have one Windows in your boot options but once you have two you realize you have two bootloaders.
