Its not a raw pci-e 16x lane, a 3rd party conpany would still have to design it based on the schematics that are open source on github. But the idea is yes, they would make something similar to that board, but instead of using a pci-e comnector, they would use the connector framework pushes, and then design their own enclosure to be able to fit into the expansion bay dimensions
Ahh, okay, thank you.
On the said topic though, at LTX, a prototype 2x m.2 slot up to 22110 (up to 110mm, basically any m.2 ssd) was shown. So I highly expect down the line, it will be offered for those who dont need a dgpu.

That is so cool!
I hope someone will make a trackpad that's a bit smaller and has physical buttons at the bottom. I wonder how hard that would be.
