In the (unlikely) event that the seconde-visa takes longer than expected could I get a VOA for the second trip quickly as a backup?
I do not have any confirmation. I did not look up to see what conversation I was in that you quoted, so I am just going off of what is visible above in your post. So I do not know if someone else said it was not possible, or I was simply mentioning something to be aware of and not to be confused if they misspoke between e-visa and visa waiver. On the other hand, I have personally viewed people at the VOA line who were turned away for coming back too soon on the visa waiver and trying to negotiate an on-the-spot VOA.
