Isn't that just the LTSC version?

Perhaps, but how do you buy a copy for your family at home?

It's been a long time, but when I built my Win 10 machine (~2016) it was possible to purchase an "OEM" install disc on Amazon. I believe that's the LTSC version. I do see one for Win 11, but the product listing is several years old now, so who knows?

OEM versions of Windows are just copies with license terms dictating that they are to be installed on and tied to a specific new PC, as opposed to a full retail license that is not tied to a specific PC and may be transferred to a different machine. What you have linked to is quite clearly Windows 11 Pro, not Windows 11 Enterprise and certainly not Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC.

cdw sells lot of diff key options, LTSC IoT used to be offered fairly reasonably, I don't know if they still do.

edit: replied to the wrong person, but leaving it here anyway, it's just about as visible I think.

Tried to buy LTSC IoT from there a while ago, got rejected for not being a business. Normal people don't deserve Windows without the permanent disrespect of user choices apparently. (not blaming them, I assume that's just Microsoft's policy)

Right. As far as I know you need to be a volume license customer, or resort to piracy.
