Who knows why Microsoft does what it does. However, at least they are agreeable to remove the updated version if you call them.
How do I unistall the Microsoft Edge "Update"
How do I uninstall the Microsoft Edge "Update" on my computer? I accidentally installed it and I don't even use Microsoft Edge. I know I can't uninstall Microsoft Edge, but hopefully I can at least uninstall the Update. It really, really stinks Microsoft forces people to have Edge on their computer because it just takes up storage space, slows your computer down and the browser tracks your surfing history.

Although this does not answer how to uninstall EDGE or the Edge Update, at least it is a work-around.
Thanks!
