Exactly. If you think you may need a larger feed for future, you
could pull the number 8's as I describe, which will give you 40 amps,
but you'd need a panel and the ground rods.

Couldn't he pull the #8's but still wire the garage as two circuits on
his existing main panel?

No, it won't all fit in the conduit.

Wait, I thought you meant pull #8's and leave the #12 Romex in the
conduit too. Yes he could run #8 wires and feed them with a 20A 2-pole
breaker. Then put the subpanel in later (increasing the breaker to 40A.)
