If you check this image The L14G2A's WLAN card is upgradable. It is slotted and ready to be taken out at will.
I own one and I checked for this before I bought it. You can also check YouTube/other review sites/with owners of the device (I am one)
I also read that newer models block installing SSD into the WWAN slot. I prefer having separate SSD for installing secondary OS.
Most ThinkPads today don't house space for more than one drive bay anymore. You can always buy an external or get a P series.
One power cycle that almost never fails me is holding power and pinhole at the same time for at least 60 seconds or longer with battery disabled/unplugged then trying it on AC power only.
If that doesn't work, there's something faulty.
Nice! I've had my eye on these for a bit.
Any packages breaking? Faulty applications? Limited functionality?
Have you tested battery life on Linux?
