E.g. if the installer detects that the BIOS is modern (e.g. later than 2017-2018) and UEFI capable, but is running in legacy boot mode, it could prints a warning and suggest to the user to restart and turn off legacy boot from the BIOS setup. The installer promises better hardware support, firmware updates and happier times to the user if the operating system is installed in UEFI mode. Finally user decides whether to do that, or choose to continue on their own risk. That is totally reasonable, IMHO. But it is a completely different thing than dropping legacy BIOS support completely.

That’s a really reasonable plan to start „deprecating“ Bios boot.
