Not sure we should really call this a bug. This behaviour results from initramfs-tools.conf containing the line 'MODULES=most' which includes all sorts of unnecessary things by default, maybe good for a livecd but perhaps not for an installation. A better behaviour would be 'MODULES=dep' which only loads modules based on dependencies, results in a much smaller initramfs, and still leaves the user with a fully working/bootable system without forcing in unwanted modules.
