Nope. There has been no mention of booting *directly* *from* the SD card
until this subthread.

So - the card is in its slot on your machine. You do 'update-grub'.
There is now an entry in GRUB's menu. That is fine. This is what you are
booting from? Your grub.cfg looks similar to what you posted before?

If GRUB has been installed to the MBR of the SD card it has absolutely
no bearing on the existence of the entry in GRUB's menu. It may as well
not be there when GRUB on the MBR of /dev/sda constructs its grub.cfg.
