Comment (by westonruter):

 The problem is that `\WP_Customize_Nav_Menus::insert_auto_draft_post()`
 was doing a `post_type_exists()` check. It's clear that for the purposes
 of this API method there needn't be a post type existence check,
 especially in the case of importing starter content. Note that
 `post_type_exists()` check is still present in
 `WP_Customize_Nav_Menus::ajax_insert_auto_draft_post()` and so the check
 was actually redundant.
