LGTM, I might expand this to speak about Androidy Bootloaders found in ARM Automotive platforms


## GRUB and os-prober

A specific component of GRUB that can significantly impede the reliabilty of OS updates is the `os-prober` aspect, which scans all system block devices. If one doesn't care about dual booting, avoiding this is a good idea.

## Anaconda

Until very recently the Anaconda project only supported setting up the bootloader (e.g. GRUB) on its own, which requires `grub2-mkconfig` etc. As of recently, Anaconda now [supports bootupd](https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/5298).

## bootupd

As of recently [the bootupd project](https://github.com/coreos/bootupd/) ships [static grub configs](https://github.com/coreos/bootupd/tree/main/src/grub2) and in this case, the `sysroot.bootloader` should be set to `none` (except on s390x).
