Does splitting a 14 mg weekly dose of oral semaglutide across two administrations change anything?

Concretely: 14 mg · oral semaglutide.

I want to know whether this is a real physical effect or an artefact of how it is measured.

What prompted the question is an inconsistency between two sources I otherwise trust.

What is the causal chain, and where does it stop being established?
