Wouldn't the power just get drawn to the 22ga, since it's got the lowest resistance? So I'd expect it to vape like a single coil.
With the thinner gauge and more wraps, those other coils would read a higher resistance... Right?

I believe you are correct, Current follows the path of least resistance, which is why a clapton works the way it does, only the core wire gets current (well the majority of the current, a small charge does travel across the coils, but not enough to actually heat the wire)

For lowest ramp up times, keep your coils simple. More wraps of a lower gauge wire will ramp up faster than fewer wraps of a heavier Ga wire. I actually use this daily, since I am building low power coils. ROTFLMAO.. don't get me started on RDAs and low power coils.. I'm building a Tsunami at 0.9ohm running on... NINE to SIXTEEN watts. LOL.

Dual coils are a bit trickier.. but doable.

By the way.. a single coil with a larger core ramps faster than 2 (dual) coils on a smaller core. Ignore the math here... it isn't accurate.. but.. 9 wraps on a 4mm core ramps faster than 2x 9wraps on a 2mm core. I could use 2 pages of math calculating the actual wire wraps figuring in the actual math using Pi x radius sqr on a coil center, etc etc.. but Im to damn lazy.
