How dependent on framework is the repair basis? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm looking into a new laptop and really like what I see from framework. One point I'm concerned about is buying into a repairable system but being wholly reliant on a small relatively new player to continue providing specially modularized parts (e.g. the USB modules). Is this concern valid or is there something I'm overlooking?

Side question: has anyone had luck with PopOS on a framework?

I just bought the stuff to build one of those with an integrated dongle. Going with a Logitech unifying receiver. I don't have anything Bolt™ capable yet. Though maybe there's room in there for both. Future proofing?

Edit: apparently, according to a 3 year old post, you can't use both receivers simultaneously. What a load of crap.
