The purpose of VMs, is to do more than one thing at once.
And in a semi-isolated environment.

As an example, say Windows 10 doesn't support your USB scanner.
But Windows 7 does. You can set up a VM with passthru, pass the
USB scanner to the Guest, and do a paper document scan without
rebooting. Two OSes running. The Guest OS doing something that
the Host would not have supported.

That's a typical reason I might do it here.

When a VM does not do a faithful emulation, then the utility
is reduced. For example, I can't really do UEFI experiments
in VirtualBox, because the UEFI shell in there doesn't behave
the way I think it should behave. The UEFI in my Asus motherboard
BIOS is much better for that sort of thing. If I needed to do
an entire multiboot setup inside a VM (which I've done, more than
once), then the VirtualBox UEFI is not good enough to prove
or disprove anything. If doing VirtualBox legacy multiboot,
the emulation there is fine and dandy. There is more call for
UEFI setups now (as your HP or Acer arrives with UEFI/GPT
setups out of the box, and people add stuff to them as is).
