True in theory, but not in practice. Legacy grub will go away eventually. If we have some grub-legacy and some grub2 installs, we have to support (document, test, take out to dinner occasionally) both, which is probably going to be more effort than just moving to grub2 after I figure out how it works. Either way is going to require a non-zero amount of work, while zero is the amount of work I would prefer to do.
