Not sure if this is serious, but you know it's gibberish for presenting fonts?

I'm not exactly sure what you're suggesting. Isn't that more or less what I just said?
The libcamera build does work on an sp6, but it's not useful, since discord and others don't support libcamera devices.
I have a surface pro 6, bought used for cheap. With the surface Linux kernel, almost everything works.
I built support for the front and rear cameras using the surface Linux instructions and they work, however it's not a working solution, since ms Teams pwa or discord can't use libcamera devices.
One thing you should be aware of, though, is that the tablet experience is only really workable in Wayland, so you'll have to forgo non-wayland apps and desktop environments. Gnome is... not great.
Also, there are several gotchas with wayland. I use flameshot for screenshots, which is broken on Wayland with scaling. Scaling also breaks default firefox on Wayland.
Sorry, didn't mean to turn this into a Wayland comment.
The hard work the folks at surface Linux have done is amazing, and I'm happy to daily drive my surface.
EFI can also live in firmware memory.
You can pull the linux drive, boot from the windows drive, and if one of the firmware updates was for efi, windows will trash the entry for your Linux disk.
This has happened for me many times, I had to use a grub rescue disk to rebuild the efi table.
XFS is simply a journalling filesystem.
ZFS is a COW filesystem and volume manager with compression, block management, and an adaptive read cache.
Kind of an apples-to-oranges comparison.
I like Kitty, but the terminfo stuff happens often enough for me that it's a no-go.
Normally, I would fiddle with workarounds, but the author of Kitty has no plans to make Kitty play ball.
