By the way, I'm running this version on one of my machines. And it's activated.

Good information. I'm going to use the 21 version. Did you have to purchase a key?

Looks like the key that is purchased is not for the IOT so support is good until 2027.

"It's the Enterprise Edition"
Not it's another variant, you have Enterprise, Enterprise LTSB/LTSC, and Enterprise IoT LTSC.
I could not find any official ways to buy a key for any LTSC / IoT LTSC, it's reserved to some customers. So yarr ol' matey

I feel like most of the time you disagree simply to disagree. IOT is one of many Enterprise Editions that were intended for large corporations. And you can find a key if you know where to look.
