Pretty sure Enhanced Mode, that only came later in Windows 3.11 for Workgroup, is the one that supported the flat addressing mode.

Enhanced mode was already in 3.0 (and I think allowed for flat addressing)

However, Win32s was introduced in 3.11 which a subset of the Windows 32-bit API from NT.

3.11 also introduced 32-bit disk access and 32-bit drivers.

Microsoft did 32-bit in steps -- it was confusing already back then.
