For an already installed system it doesn't really matters, so the point is moot here.
But for the new systems setup I would always prefer a UEFI (with or without SecureBoot) because it allows to expose the HID management of the onboard/expansion board controllers, a proper way to return to the management/boot menu in the case of the failed boot.
Sure, it doesn't always work good, but neither BIOS/CMS.
