So wonder, which installer you tried that gave you these two options. I
got an impression that these two are just different installers - 1 UEFI
and 1 BIOS.
UEFI installer is a hybrid installer - works for both UEFI and BIOS:

BTW I was about to download the -bios installer though I was so far trying
-current using UEFI installer. Someone suggested me that some X11 issues
may get resolved if I use the bios installer. I am not sure how though.
