Adding a basic project backend for EDE seems to have been a bet with 
little payout (nobody who knows anything about EDE is improving it).

Could you explain how you using EDE and the benefit you get from calling 
(ede-enable-generic-projects)?

Would anybody miss EDE <-> project.el integration, do you think?

We could remove it or, I suppose, deprioritize over the VC-based backend.

For a workaround, try:

  (with-eval-after-load 'ede
    (remove-hook 'project-find-functions #'project-try-ede))
