LOL. I don't think that you can call the grub config that every
distribution other than Fedora and RHEL uses "legacy." I wonder
whether BLSCFG's been upstreamed.
BLS seems to be tied to UEFI, so the old grub config will last as long
as distros still boot with BIOS. Other distributions do use BLS:
https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION/ wants to infest not
only linux, but other open-source operating systems. It seems one of the
main reasons for BLS is to avoid conflicts in /boot when two different linux
distros are installed.
The specification lives at https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/BootLoaderSpec/
