I'm trying to decide whether to go for a single stick of 16GB DDR5 RAM or two 8GB sticks. If I choose the single stick, can I add another 16GB later on? Or is there a big advantage to getting the dual-channel setup right away with the 2x8GB option?

I'd recommend getting the 1x16GB option if you plan to add another stick later. If you're looking for something more permanent though, go for the 2x8GB. It may provide better performance in dual-channel mode.
What if I just hold off for a while and wait for RAM prices to drop before going for the 2x8GB option?
