Glad you could solve your initial problem!

In fact, I did not go far enough when citing
completion-category-overrides, because the value you had is indeed the
default one and is not caused by any additional package. I should have
checked that more precisely.

This has even been raised on the emacs dev list some time ago, along
with some bug reports related to the default completion being sometimes
too "aggressive":
