BTW, I did end up returning the 2x converter, as f/9 was one stop too much for me... With the realities of a limited budget, the question that I must address is, get the 800PF or get a second Z9? 
Enjoy the new gear and don't think about more purchases for a while.
The Z9 was announced over a year ago, and a lot of people seem to prefer smaller camera bodies, so one would think Nikon would put out a smaller camera with close to Z9-like capabilities soon (in 2023). The Expeed 7 processor should give a large boost to the performance of the Z6 / Z7 series, and there could be other models coming as well. If the intention is to use two cameras side by side, then it probably is not desirable to have two Z9's for this purpose, rather, have a smaller second body to keep the total weight of the bag and cost at a manageable level. An 800/6.3 can then be added at an earlier point and there would be a bit more space in the bag for it than if the space and carrying capacity is occupied by two large and heavy bodies.
Personally don't mind switching lenses and don't keep two cameras mounted to lenses at the same time. I prefer the lighter weight bag when just carrying one camera. I miss moments for sure (not always having the right focal length at hand) but then I also miss shots in case I am burdened by a bag that is too heavy and as a result don't go out to shoot.
