How?

No dual boot here, Windows is confined to a VM. Even in the ancient times I had dual boot, last century, Linux was always the default.

That is all good and fine, unless you need it to interact with hardware, which I do.

Then still you can set Linux as default. Lilo had an option to reboot with an option to set a 1 time default. (that was neat)
On dual boot hardware, I always set the one I want to default boot, which is in my case always Linux. (must still have a dual boot laptop somewhere)

Linux is my first option, I just need to have a second (Windows). And grub also has the boot once thing, but it doesn't work with BTRFS 🤷.

I don't trust btrfs. Software that relies on not breaking is b0rken in my opinion. (Unless they finally fixed that)

Yeah, it doesn't break any more. Rock solid the past few years, not a single problem.
