It's an answer to Apple's arbitrary hand-holding of what you can do
with your expensive device from them.

You *can* dual-boot with a single drive, sure, but it sucks balls.  I
wouldn't do it.

I mean, it is that in a sense, but even just to "feel good" about my
build, I did what I did.  I had a 1 TB SATA SSD, that I'd briefly used
in my old computer, but I bought it for that computer, I wanted to get
the latest and greatest for this one, even if it seems redundant to a
"practical" person like you (who pays for Apple ...).

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
