  • With UEFI, you don't need to worry about GRUB finding the other operating systems. The UEFI BIOS can select from multiple EFI bootloaders Commented Jan 15, 2018 at 18:54

    @multithr3at3d While that is theoretically the case, there are essentially no consumer systems that provide any way to select one or the other manually on boot without going through the firmware configuration menu or hitting some special hotkey, and updating the boot-order from Windows is an unreliable pain in the arse. Given both factors, it really is easier in almost all cases to use a regular bootloader like GRUB 2 or rEFInd. Commented Jan 15, 2018 at 20:04
