Microsoft may consider adding BIOS serial number to somewhere like EasClientDeviceInformation. It's essential for some operations. Many companies have their enterprise tied to those serial numbers and it's very crucial to have a way to obtain it. Just ask around from the companies whose machines are DELL or HP or etc. The way IT tracks the machines is usually based on that serial number. I can see scenarios that an application wants to verify the machine it is running on. 'SystemManufacturer' property is there which is better than nothing but having another property like 'SystemManufacturerSerialNumber' or similar is going to be very useful or businesses are forced to build their apps in traditional way if they need that feature.
