You can still do BIOS boot on disks without partitions. One huge advantage of "legacy" boot is that it can work filesystem-agnostic, avoiding and secondary FS implementations in the firmware or in the bootloader.
And if you go that far, you can throw out any FS kmod from the initrd except for what you need for your root partition. Including vfat.
