That's true, but it very rarely needs the boot sector loader updated.
Also, I don't know what grub2-install would do to a GPT formatted disk.
You can specify "TARGET" with "--target=". From the man page:
--target=TARGET
install GRUB for TARGET platform [default=i386-pc]; available targets:
arm-efi ... arm64-efi ... i386-efi ... ia64-efi ... x86_64-efi ...
