This is the real problem right here and why I was ready to upgrade day one. Not interested in the M2 Air now. I'm sure it's all very nice but the only thing missing from my Air that I really wanted was multiple display output.

You can have multiple display support with Display Link. It's not ideal because it consumes CPU, but it's working fine with my M1 MBA. If I had to do it again, I'd likely just purchase a real nice single monitor.

Looked into it but the need to grant screen recording permission really made me uncomfortable.

EDIT: not sure why this was downvoted. All DisplayLink devices need to be granted screen recording permission to work on macOS.
