Create EFI System Partition: it should have proper partition type UUID and

Only if one wants to have the bootloaders for other systems on it. I
have been using EFI system partitions of <50 or <80 mega-octets for more
than a decade without any trouble, and now I am using a 16 mega-octets
disk image to boot VMs.
My fault, I forgot to post a link with some reasoning:

Nicolas, I am not trying to force *you* to resize ESP partitions on your
machines. However I consider it safer to use bigger partition in general
case, especially due to some uncertainties in respect to specific
configuration.
Are you sure that fwupd will never try put a large enough file to update
firmware of some device? My experience is that laptop firmware updater,
launched from a USB stick, creates some files on the internal drive. Are
you sure that unified kernel images will not become default before the
user replaces their drive?
