EFI will kill your program if it runs too long unless it disables a lot of the drives by exiting the boot environment.

Additionally, a lot of the EFI structures aren't intuitive or straightforward since they cover a lot of functionality, you'd still write a lot of code, probably more than the non-EFI variant.
