If you mean why I don't want to build from source, it's simply to make
my life easier :)
If you mean why a single flat PE image instead of modules it's because
I assume that is neccessary to run on UEFI not supporting Legacy BIOS.
But maybe I assume wrong and UEFI can handle modules? (Maybe you don't
call it modules but rather something different...)
