Im unconcerned about the calls but this doesn’t sound feasible for >500 seats.

LTSC isn't intended for day-to-day PC users. MSFT would happily sell you licensed for 500 seats. I have had Customers with >500 seat Open License contracts. (It's all pretty meaningless now since the program is effectively dead anyway...)

If you have that kind of volume can't you buy LTSC from relatively normal channels?

The Open License program is a "normal" channel. Many small and medium businesses acquired their licenses for MSFT products that way.
