Classic site as Hub site (yes!) but multiple global navigation bars (so close)

Question

If you make your classic site into a Hub Site it works perfectly WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MODERN PAGES -- they show the global navigation twice (once being the Hub Site navigation and once being where the global navigation was previously).&nbsp; See example below....

&nbsp;
Also, and this is tremendous, if your classic site has navigation set already, that global navigation becomes the hub site navigation.&nbsp; That's awesome, that means that Intranets with a current global navigation structure can basically make there root site collection the hubsite, it was already have the navigation it needs, and you're set.&nbsp; All you would need to do is associate any modern sites to the hubsite that you may have already placed manually into the navigation structure before.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
That said, let's hope there's a quick fix for the above duplicate navigation.&nbsp; Other than that.. perfect solution to a huge page point previously.&nbsp;&nbsp;

If you change the 'Global navigation' setting (Site Settings - Navigation) for each subsites from 'Display the same...' to 'Structural Navigation...' and leave the 'Global navigation' tree in the 'Structural Navigation: edit and sort' box empty, there will be no second menu anymore.

I know this is an old post but we are interested in making our Root of tenant the Hub as well. We have been doing a lot of research on how to convert from old Classic Team based template sites to the Modern Experience. Was the site you made into a Hub a Classic Team or a Classic Communication template site?

I have been reading for a long time now that Microsoft is working on a method or tool to convert the long existing SharePoint to the New Modern Experience. Right now we have a mashup of old and New and it is ugly and confusing.
