One more follow up.

now that we do know that some BIOS(s) are updateable from post-boot, as
i recalled, can we require that, for example and discussions sake:

Desktop and portable computers hardware configuration options available
at pre-boot time, must also be configurable after boot.

This seems broad enough to allow various solutions to meet this
requirement.

I'd think this requirement would go in "hardware".
