I am not confident, however, that this will work properly across
different size drives.  If it does, is the partition table not
dependent on the disk size?

There are no physicists in the hottest parts of hell, because the
existence of a "hottest part" implies a temperature difference, and
any marginally competent physicist would immediately use this to
run a heat engine and make some other part of hell comfortably cool.
This is obviously impossible.
