I have done a test.
I can boot from the Fedora 34 live cd I have setup in
Virtual box. 2G boot file.
I've found that there are 23 packages that are not
included in the live cd setup, so have to install them.

So, going from a simple boot with a 10M kernel and 30M
filesystem running in ram versus booting to a 2G
filesystem and having to add stuff requiring the internet.
I don't think you're getting my point and aren't actually answering my
questions.
What is special about the kernel you're compiling that the Fedora kernel
won't work? Don't say anything about EFI.
You have an initramfs already. Why can't you keep that, but replace the
kernel modules with the ones from Fedora?
This would get you a fully functional EFI boot that would even work with
secure boot enabled.
