Zram, Zswap, Swap, and Hibernation

Hello!

I have been looking into enabling hibernation. Have discovered that Bazzite uses Zram to do active compression in RAM as swap.

From what I have been reading it should be possible to have both Zram and a traditional swap at the same time, with the Zram taking priority, and then setting up things in grub such that when hibernating the swap is used (for obvious reasons)

I have also heard of a tool called "zram-hibernate" that automates the setup process.

Is there some reason that this is not considered possible with Bazzite? I would really like to use Zram for normal use, then a dedicated swap partition for only hibernate.
