Love or hate UEFI it's the defacto standard for booting modern hardware and the added support gets us closer to a viable desktop platform. The success of M1 has shown the advantages of a consumer risc platform but the holy grail for many of us is a totally open platform with similar power/performance advantages to arm.
It's a small step but an important one.
