Ubuntu installer has separate /boot partition by default. If you don't do anything special during installation you end up with it.

No you don't. Ubuntu's default partition map is one big / and one efi(if necessary).

I literally just did a BIOS install and it has a separate /boot.

I assume it changed recently, I've seen fresh 2014 installs with tiny 255MB boot partitions.
