> 6. Delete the VM's .nvram file.

That's interesting!

Besides the trick that entering the EFI shell before boot, I've tried removing
the VM's .nvram file in ESXi's datastore file browser, which will also result
in a successful boot, but only once. 

After a reboot (inc. cold boot and hot reboot) it will fail again and needs
another purge of its NVRAM file, or entering the EFI shell as I mentioned in
comment #5.
