Is it a problem to install Bazzite on LVM?

I wouldn't think it would be, most stuff not looking at the metal level should see any FS on top of LVM as a normal partition and it should function as a normal partition, just with a invisible LVM layer underneath.
But I wanted to make sure. Can I without problem and should I install Bazzite on LVM? One benefit of LVM is being able to shift partition size including shrinking partitions, without much risk if sufficient space.

Why LVM, why not use btrfs and make subvolumes?

For one my current Distro Mint is sitting on a LVM, I should be able to shrink the partition it's on and install Bazzite on it's own partition thanks to LVM. Which does not run contrary to your subvolumes since LVM sits below the normal partition level. So I'd appreciate a answer to my original question if someone is able to answer please.
