It is true that the BIOS boot partition is limited to a single physical disk. What I
normally do is to replicate it to the other disks with "dd". As it remains

It may already do this. I think it already does for the ESP on EFI installs.
Of course, after a disk failure, you have to remember to make a copy
again to the new disk.
Another way to automate this would be to have a "checkBIOS" service upon boot
that verifies if all physical disks have the same BIOS-Grub MD5 and if not, it suggests to
replicate or to continue. It can even save the initial MD5 somewhere under /etc to compare
further checks against it.
Yeah, there are a number of ways to skin this.
