Agreed. Those are the only two allowable underground cabling methods I know. Direct burial cable.....or conduit using wet-rated cable. I'd be stunned if someone credibly posted here or anywhere suggesting that plain ol' NM Romex can go underground. It is not rated for wet locations, AFAIK.

And no splices in conduit, of course. Until today, I did not know that any splice was allowed outside an accessible box.
