It felt simpler to stick to one single bootloader (syslinux), back
then. And then we had to add GRUB for 32-bit UEFI. So yeah, some day
we should unify this. Possibly with syslinux, possibly with GRUB.
But that's clearly not high on our todo list.

The cost of migrating to GRUB everywhere was simply higher :)
