This is not a question but more about putting a Time-Machine backup on a new drive.
After initialising a new drive, I elected to accept the option to make it a Time-Machine backup, after which I cannot create new folders.
My solution was to erase the disk and not to backup Time Machine on it.
Alternatively, put a Time Machine in another partition.

Time Machine wants to own the volume that it uses for backups. And it's never a good idea to combine file storage and backups on the same device. When that device fails, it may take everything with it.
Correct. That would be the normal behavior.
