Also on laptop, yeah - I only ever had one laptop in my life (a Gemini Celeron for like 300 monies), but it has two drives (both sata iirc).
(I only need it to remote to my servers & maybe some web browsing.)
For any modern laptops, it is very rare to find one with dual SSD. I guess for your case it is different, my old 2012 Thinkpad can take dual drive too but it is slow.
I’m glad I’ve always kept Windows on a separate disk.
Mine still got fucked.

I assume this isn’t usual?

I’m sure laptops with only 1 NVMe slot exist, but you can just not buy them
Don’t partition records on one disk affect multiple disks?
Not if they are on the (encrypted at that) Linux disc & uefi boots to that drive.
I think that would be unknown to a lot of people expecting to dual boot as a transition step away from Windows.
