I don't think it is hard to read past it and I don't think there are only positive sides. If it stays an optional component it might be true, but it would be naive to just let this be the only perspective in hindsight of development of closed systems like smartphones.

But the author states that they still use computers from before 2012 because they are avoiding EFI. Why?
From 2012 until present, computers have been produced that run any EFI binary you want. Why not buy one of those? It's no different than sticking with pre-2012 machines, except you aren't attached to cruft from the 1980s anymore.
