I decided to try a fresh netinstall alongside and Boom:

multiple network interfaces

eno1: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I218-LM

what about this mystery "Unknown"?
do I have a pending hardware failure?
Looking up the MAC address in the name of that last interface the name
says it's from Realtek Semiconductor Corp so it seems unrelated to the
other Intel devices. Try looking at the output of 'dmesg' and look for
'Realtek' in the kernal log for a clue.
dmesg gave me 1662 lines.

I only found these with realtek:

Do you have any other network devices plugged in, perhaps in USB port?
Possibly a wifi dongle.
yes, I have several, 2 UPS devices, KVM, printer, etc.

perhaps my new UPS is the culprit.

process of elimination might tell the tale

Also, a long shot, something could be
automagically configuring something like a phone or bluetooth device
for network use.
