They actually can. They have Windows Logo program, which specifies conditions that your product has to comply with, if you want to qualify. OEMs like Dell want to qualify, that allows them to put the Windows sticker on the box.
How do you think Microsoft made the OEMs ship UEFI and Secure Boot in the first place?
