CSMWrap is a cool little hack that brings back the good old PC BIOS on
those fancy-pants UEFI-only systems. It utilises the CSM

No quite so fast...
While it presents a BIOS style system to boot FreeDOS, it is (and
probably will for the foreseeable future) presenting a very generic
BIOS, with no support for recent graphics cards that don't have for
example a VESA BIOS themselves. And a lot of other hardware might only
be rather sparsely supported. This all would require a lot of additional
work in the SEABIOS portion that what is currently available. Not to
mention things like sound and network support.
