With the current multi-install setup, this is no longer a problem.

Title:
I've confirmed that, as of focal, the /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/ directory no
longer needs to be present in order for the grub-efi-amd64 package to
install the bootloader files. Even /boot/efi/EFI/ does not need to be
there; it will be created. This issue still appears to exist on the
Debian side,

I think there's a good case to get rid of those Conflicts:, at least for
the package combinations that make sense. BIOS+EFI definitely makes
sense, IMO.

Ahh, I forgot about the -bin. I was talking to sil2000 on IRC the other
day and he said he has made cosmic install them both, but they do still
appear to conflict. Strange.

My understanding is that grub-pc conflicts with grub-efi-amd64 (and
other top-level GRUB packages), so having both installed shouldn't even
be possible. (I've filed a bug report on the Debian side to address
this, as this situation is not ideal: https://bugs.debian.org/904062)
And that if you want
No; you may not be installing it anywhere at all. It is perfectly valid
to have the grub-efi package installed in a PC that is booting in bios
mode ( in fact, apparently we do now install both grub-efi and grub-pc
if you boot the installer in EFI mode but the existing OS installed is
in bios mode
Philip, wouldn't such a debconf question be closely related to the
existing question on whether to install to the EFI removable media path?
Because if you're not putting things into EFI/ubuntu/ (or EFI/debian/),
then you'd be putting them into EFI/BOOT/ ...

I would think that the postinst script should use a low priority debconf
question to ask if you want to create the directory and install or not,
and default to not if you aren't showing low priority questions.

So, I agree with this being a grub2 bug.
I'll take a shot at fixing this; it shouldn't be terribly difficult.

I should point out that on the Debian side, the same conditional exists
in the postinst script, so this same issue occurs there as well. (Only
with the /boot/efi/EFI/debian/ directory, of course.)
