It's a similar idea, but that's a DOS menu. At the point when the menu appears, MS-DOS 7.1 has already been loaded.

Stupid question but... would bundling the binary with an ASM port of something that could run this technically make it possible to run without the OS?

I realize this is basically doing docker for DOS games and incredibly stupid, I'm just curious about the thought experiment

Well, the "ASM port of something that could run this" would be the OS...
Right. I guess I mean like an app specific OS haha
Possibly stripped down to only support that game, but basically yeah
