(U)EFI was created by Intel replace legacy BIOS, it had nothing to do with Microsoft. AFAIK, OS X adopted it long before Windows. I'm not sure why you keep mentioning Microsoft over and over. Arch has great UEFI support and it results in a significant improvement in boot time compared to legacy BIOS booting. The gummiboot loader is a huge simplication over grub, so there's not much to complain about there either.
