The "Skip Home" function only skips the menu when entering BIOS (where you can choose to enter manual BIOS mode, auto robo overclock I believe, I forget all the options..). I have the Z390 Dark, but that is how the feature functions on it and I would assume it's the same for the FTW.
Usually, pressing escape or tab during a boot logo screen before Windows or your OS begins to load, will display the legacy POST info you are looking for, which usually consists of a memory check, and initialization of addon cards, such as SCSI controllers, floppy drives, etc. That information isn't usually available if the CSM is not enabled for legacy device support. Fast Boot does not support CSM being enabled, if I remember correctly. Unless you're trying to boot from BIOS mode or legacy devices such as an add-on card, there wouldn't be information to display.
The logo is typically displayed and continues to be displayed during Windows 10 boot process, along with the Balls of Death that spin while Windows loads. I haven't tried changing the boot logo on any recent motherboard, but you could definitely try the tool that was linked, to replace it with your own image.
My last personal system prior to my Z390 Dark, was a 2013 ASUS ROG Formula V Maximus, and the logo during boot was a thing back then, too. There was an option to display it as is, full screen, or blank I think. It's been a while.
I'm not sure exactly what info you're hoping to see instead, such as if you simply want to see the memory verification for the split second it occurs, along with the "Press Del or F2 to enter BIOS" or whatever the message says along with the BIOS manufacturer above it (such as Phoenix or Award or AMI), or if you're looking for verbose windows booting (I'm not sure if that's still an option in Windows booting these days). These are basically legacy POST screens for BIOS motherboards. Everything these days is UEFI, though BIOS mode is usually offered for compatibility if needed. This does require disabling Secure Boot and enabling BIOS mode boot devices, saving and rebooting into the BIOS config, then selecting one of the non UEFI boot menu items, but that's typically only needed for some specific use cases, such as older recovery flash drives or disk utilities, like older versions of Acronis boot image, DBAN, or a few others.
I don't think you'll find a modern motherboard that displays what you're looking for though. UEFI typically displays a boot logo that is embedded into the firmware, which can usually be changed with tools capable of doing so. Just be sure to use something that supports recent firmware files. The last thing you want to do is flash a corrupt firmware image.
I hope this helped.
