Say you have one 8Gb DDR5 soldered and one 32GB DDR5 module with a Ryzen 7 6800U. In that case, the 8GB ram will be itself running in 4GBx2 Dual Channel model and will be connected to 2x32bit channel. The other 32GB Ram will be running in 2x16GB Dual Channel mode and will be connected with the rest of the memory controller in 2x32 Bit, resulting Quad Channel configuration for the full capacity, even if the memory capacity is dissimilar between the two sticks.
Now regarding your idea about E -> L -> T, let me correct you on that. Build Quality and material wise, since 2020, E series has been redesigned by a lot to make it slimmer, lighter and metal has been used in the lid and top base. It is actually superior to L series which is made of plastic completely. The Advantage L series has towards business Customers is the offered specification related to security and business specific features. For example, L series can be configured with Intel V Pro and Ryzen Pro series CPUs which may be required by some business due to their integrated security options. It can be also fitted with LTE cards, not available in E series. But if you're buying for personal usage and don't require those, E series is actually a better choice due to build quality.

You can get the same laptop [lenovo.com] with 16gb of ram for $782 with the same coupon codes and "upgrade" (lose dual channel though) to 40gb yourself for the same price if you find yourself needing that much ram.

Plastic isn't always inferior to aluminum, at least as the outer material for a laptop. Plastic flexes more than aluminum, which means chips & dents are less likely in collision. The plastic being generally very high quality on the L-series means it'll be strong enough to resist typical impact.
Plastic is typically only a cause for concern when it's used for hinges, and unfortunately E-series share the same plastic hinges as Lenovo's cheap IdeaPads. The most common issue E-series ThinkPads run into is the hinges failing in a few years. The L-series don't have such issue because it has metal hinges.
Note that Intel and AMD are referring to their DDR5 desktop CPUs as having dual-channel memory support, not quad-channel. That could be seen as marketing winning over engineering, but it's probably necessary because the DDR5 memory channel situation has been communicated so poorly.

There is no easy solution here. 2DPC (two modules per channel) doesn't really mean much if technically channel there infers 64-bit but you're running on a 2x32-bit channel system. Some users are calling a DDR5 module a 'channel' with two 32-bit 'sub-channels', although that is more a twisting of reality, given that sub-channels are often something else in memory design. Because we've used the word 'module' to imply a 64-bit channel for so long, and because memory can be installed with more than one module per 64-bit channel, it's actually a mess in English to find not only the correct words but also ones simple enough to not make the situation overly complex. Perhaps it's time for some new words.
I'm super impressed
