Blank profile works OK, it breaks when I uncheck all one-click search engines and leave only Google.

I don't understand your issue. If you uncheck all the search engines in about:preferences#search, except GG, the dropdown list will only display GG as possibilty.

Attachment: Loic, it does not display _search suggestions_ if I choose GG only. _search suggestions_ are text lines as on screenshot.
