Disk partioning has been around since the 60s, it’s not really a new feature to be able to install a distro without wiping the whole drive and has nothing to do with Linux.

I'm... not impressed with the concept of disk partitioning, what a weird way to read that.

I'm impressed with the interface smartly picking up on what you're trying to do, shrinking and growing partitions and setting up things automatically to specifically support a non-destructive install to coexist with other OSs because the idea that you'd be just testing a distro alongside Windows or something else is a specifically supported use case.
