As stated in duped bug removing nvidia drivers (nvidia-390 here) via software-properties only removes the driver meta package so actually nothing is removed. 
(- and of course /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf will still  be there ..

Bug description:
  Following a successful install and subsequent use of nvidia-340 -
  uninstallation of nvidia via Additional Drivers led to a reboot to a
  desktop at 640x480 px.

  Investigation found an nvidia created file left on the system
  blacklisting nouveau, deleted file and rebooted to normal desktop.

  Didn't think about ubuntu-reporting this - can try and replicate and
  apport-collect if it's of any use.
