One add to that: just because a system has UEFI doesn't mean it supports all the same boot methods equally. I do a lot of network installs, and early UEFI systems I tried had broken PXE support (not sure when this may have changed, as I then didn't try for a while).
Setting up a UEFI PXE boot server is (in my experience) more complicated. UEFI also supports HTTP boot, which is an improvement (the sooner TFTP can die the better), but it's not a widespread (or at least, sometimes not as easy to call).
This is certainly why I have a lot of UEFI capable machines using MBR boot because it's only recently that I got network booting to work with UEFI and the install would install as MBR if it was booted from a legacy network book.
