re: 401k options if ready to retire early?

Before 59.5, there are two typical options to withdraw penalty free:
1) 72t https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/rule72t.asp
2) Rule of 55. Some 401k plans allow taking distributions penalty free if u retire at age 55. From what I understand this is plan dependent and may have special rules etc.
Sometimes the IRS has special exceptions for certain years if you are in a natural disaster area or covid for example back in 2020.
ETA: bod312 beat me to it. I was updating my post for Roth conversions.
