That's literally what I did yesterday with my method. It works, Windows has never trashed it

It will, thats why that meme exists.

Not during typically reboots, but when some windows update or autofile repair happens it thinks it is the only OS on that partition and does what it likes.

Nope, ran it like this for over 5 years. Definitely rebooted during updates / did some crap

Then you have been lucky, because most peoples experience with grub EFI on Windows partition is windows will eventually scrub it.

[-] jose1324@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

I'm not using Grub

Makes no difference of what bootloader, just that windows thimks it owns that partition
