SUSE is evaluating drop of Legacy boot support, please let us know if you foresee any issues.
as far as I noticed (also from SUSE customers) BIOS is still rather often used on virtual machines (regardless that technically they likely could also use UEFI in most of their virtualization environments).
That's changing. Many of the new features customers meanwhile need are not possible with legacy BIOS, you need UEFI. Which is also true for the main new Leap 16/SLES 16 features (I don't speak about package version updates). They don't work with legacy bios.
