As long as you have a spare drive for it, it works great. It does not support dual boot on a single drive.

But SSDs are dirt cheap these days.

this is not true, but they don't recommend it. they provide instructions for single-drive dual boot on the website.

The official stance is that it is not supported. That doesn't mean there aren't ways to do it.

right, which is literally what I said.

It actually does support installation on a single drive but it requires tinkering so I wouldn't recommend if you are just starting with Linux. Source: me, did it last year to test out, but don't recall where I found the tutorial for it.
