Don't forget it's also in the short description:

 _Description: Force extra installation to the EFI removable path?

But what exactly does "force extra installation" mean here?  If it's
just a slightly abbreviated way of saying "force AN extra
installation of GRUB", the version in the long description ought to
spell it out.

And while I'm here, I'd reverse the uses of "make sure" and "ensure",
and switch an "it" with a "this".

  Some EFI-based systems are buggy and do not handle new bootloaders correctly.
- If you force extra installation of GRUB to the EFI removable path, it should
- make sure that this system will boot Debian correctly despite such a problem.
- However, this may remove the ability to boot any other operating systems that
- also depend on this path. If so, you will need to ensure that GRUB is
- configured successfully to be able boot any other OS installations correctly.
