Comment (by tqh):

 A UEFI disk is bootable by default if it has a EFI system boot partition
 and BOOTX<ARCH>.EFI. However they are usually lower prio as they are only
 intended to launch on first boot as installers or when removable disks are
 attached. Boot options usually takes prio.

 Read the specifications, all other OS'es already does a good job at this.
 Or learn more about bootctl and things in Linux.
