Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the report.

This was a side effect of #51679, which has been fixed on the same day shortly.

This post provides some technical details on 5.5.2 and 5.5.3 releases:

You can manually delete any bundled themes that you don't need, they should not be installed again.
