Can't recommend a filament dryer enough, this is a great tip. The AMS itself helps keep your filament more dry longer than being exposed to the elements, but you really should consider a good dryer.
As far as nozzles go, mind the filaments you plan to use with them, as a .2 nozzle is way more likely to clog with "filled" filaments, but if you're printing non abrasive, non filled filaments and you want the extra detail you can't beat a .2 - i purchased the CMYK lithophane kit and the detail with the smaller nozzle makes them almost photo quality. The great part is, though, bambu nozzles are far simpler to change than most other printers. If you plan on swapping them often, I'd recommend printing the cable/connector removal tools as the connectors can be a bit fiddly.
