Multiple images are BS - PIA due to subject movement with the frame across multiple frames. It's easier to process one image alone.

The inside the camera multimage does the precessing. The final composite is a jpg not a raw though.

I told you on page 2 that if in-camera HDR will work for you, do that. It just usually isn't as effective as post processed HDR or just pasting in a correctly exposed moon.

Normally "multiple images" means having the camera set for continuous shutter release and taking multiple shots of the same scene. The shots are then combined in PP using a process referred to as blending. However, in this case what's being referred to is taking one shot of the foreground and another totally different shot of the moon, giving the opportunity to get the focus and exposure right for each. The images are then used to form what's referred to as a composite.

Making a composite is not the same process as blending multishot images, and it's not the same as merging bracketed shots (a process known as HDR merging).

I understand the usual difference, i am asking more what is actually happening in the camera, if anyone knows, in the Nikon Z50 specifically. There are several ways to use the internal multiple image function, which is really a very cool feature. In the Z50, on can shoot the several images automatically, or each separately. In the later, the cool thing is that there is a ghost seen of the pervious image in the viewfinder, so you can move the next image if you want to separate the images. If you do not change the camera angle, you will be able to choose from various merging aka overlay, techniques, and, you should be able to alter exposure of each image so using both would create a different result, i assume.
