I just ordered a PinePhone, and I've been doing some reading on the wiki...  It sounds like it will be possible to get several SD cards, and install a different OS on each card, and then swap OSes by powering off, swapping the SD card, powering back on.  Is that correct?  I'm hoping it is, because it will make it super-easy to try out some of the more interesting (and maybe less polished) OS options.

Is there any particular reason to install an OS on the internal storage (versus SD card)?  Maybe better performance?
