chmod +ax may be a handy debug tool; not acceptable for deployments ;
there needs to be a runtime cli option.

That is exactly what os_prober is supposed to do since usually the other

Title:
grub-mkconfig finds all /grub directories on umounted disks
Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
grub-mkconfig looks at all disks in the system and generates a huge
grub.cfg file;
It searches unmounted disks and adds everything with a /grub directory
to grub.cfg ;
By default - it should only search the current /boot partition, or
alternately add an option
that searches all mounted FS ;
IT SHOULD NOT BROWSE ALL RAW DISKS - EVEN THOSE THAT ARE NOT MOUNTED.
dpkg -l | grep grub-comm

grub file with contents of umounted disks:
( only /dev/sda was mounted )

# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE

# It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates
