The MacBook Pro can support several external displays simultaneously:

Up to two external displays with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz at over a billion colors (M1 Pro) or up to three external displays with up to 6K resolution and one external display with up to 4K resolution at 60Hz at over a billion colors (M1 Max)

The old-chassis pros (incl. the new m2 13") can only do one monitor, if I remember correctly?

I think you remember right, this is the same issue as with the M1. The continued existence of this specific model (M2 13“ Pro) is by far the most confusing aspect of the current Mac lineup

The just-updated base MBP still can't do this. But surely it will be updated before next decade, as GP suggested (perhaps exaggerating). I assume the base model will be updated with 2 years, or retired. I can't imagine they'll sell many units, considering how the MBAs are less expensive, sleeker, and have better camera/IO.
