No worries. I understand. If you ever decide to dualboot, I'd highly suggest you separate the two OSs into their own SSDs, that way you won't get any bootloader headaches at all. Whenever windows updates and takes over the bootloader, you get into your bios and change the boot sequence to boot into the Linux drive. From there you re-enable OS prober in grub, update grub, and boom you're in. This is how I've been doing it to avoid all the bootloader headaches.

Excellent advice, thank you!
