VFR is "simple" in that it is a simple markup language. A markup language
defers presentation to the browser. The VRF "browser" in the edk2 is text
based. It sounds like you saw a system where the VFR "broswer" was based on a
graphics engine and not text.
In general in UEFI we have tried to push policy into the platform to enable
innovation and interoperability. So that platform you saw where you really
liked the VFR presentation was an example of that type of innovation.
