> bypasses the TPM check

The caveat with this is that it will fail the check on subsequent version upgrades too and will refuse to upgrade.

Non-Enterprise editions are only supported for 2 years so your 25H2 (or whatever it is) installation will go sour in 2027.

Perhaps, but Windows 11 has been out for 4 years and every version so far has worked without a TPM.
