Agreed, but MS are cracking down on alternative installations methods that go around requirements.

The vast majority of people don't really know that MS has ramped up spyware systems in Win11. A large portion of them probably couldn't care less (although some non-technically minded folks would probably refuse to move to Win 11 if the spyware issues were described in clear, non-technical language).
