Indeed- However there are several other ways to kill out of (other) ePXE boot interfaces, and most of them indicate how to escape or kill out of the sequence.
I have seen escape key, i have seen any key, but those are often indicated in text before or next to the ongoing PXE boot attempt. It just seemed to me - (and i am no expert) that having a brief note inline would be easy to implement and avoid confusion / having to look up / try different keystrokes during the PXE boot sequence for folks not familiar with this particular product. Again, i may be wrong- but it seems that the 'abort' or control-c is very common in post-boot environments, but not nearly as common in pre-boot environments.
