I'm not going to disagree with you either! I think you've very accurately described the current situation.
I'm reminded of the way that DAP was a reaction to the lame crap that was computerized directory lookup, and LDAP was a reaction to the hideous complexity of DAP. Maybe what we need is to nail down an optimally useful subset of EFI, disposing of inherently bad ideas like filesystem drivers in firmware... LUEFI p'raps? Course, that just invokes xkcd. But it worked for LDAP.
