This won't be the case for much longer; Intel will finally drop CSM
("BIOS") support this year.
Even putting that aside, for the past several years CSM/BIOS has been
slowly bitrotting due to a lack of real testing, as the last few Windows
releases have mandated use of UEFI for preinstalled systems, plus the
EOLing of Windows 7 and (especially) XP.
AMD is "strongly" recommending UEFI for the windows [1]
So Apple dropped CSM in 2006
Intel in 2020
AMD is against it's use
Windows has moved on with the curve...
