In that case they could just install Linux in the other machine to try it out.

I mean if you're "just trying it out", you could just use a live USB. You're probably not saving anything valuable to it anyway.

it certainly sound like they don't have 2 machines to run syncthing

Can't understand any reason you would think that.

why wouldn't they just copy all their important data to the other machine to avoid the data loss risk?

That's...what I'm suggesting? Syncthing just automates the process.
