I've already hinted at this, because those entries are either

its own unique GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= which really only applies to that

parameters, not Fedora's. And vice versa.
oh ouch...
Further, because Fedora uses grubby to update its grub.cfg rather than
rebuilding it from scratch, the Fedora grub.cfg never will get updated
to reflect the actual state of Ubuntu's installed kernels as they
change.
It's just a shitty workflow. The proper way to do this, as I've
mentioned before, is grub-mkconfig should not create menu entries for
"other" OS's, it should use the configfile command, and load that
other OS's grub.cfg.
So I just disable this crap because it's f'n broken.
mmm I think I see your
point.. I'll work on that booting part... F12..
and clean up the entries..
