This is like asking why do you prefer to start your engine with a key when we have buttons that scan your fingerprint and authenticate you with Apple?

If the BIOS is sufficient and simpler... why not?

You can't boot from NVMe with BIOS, not interested in running systems that don't boot off NVMe

I wonder why? I would expect that it is possible technically just that "the powers that be" made a policy decision not to allow it.

If it were possible would you use the BIOS?

There are a handful of drives that support booting via bios - Samsung 950 Pro is the most common.
