1. First and foremost, if your only problem with Window 11 is the TPM check, just bypass the TPM check. My gripes with Windows 11 go far beyond this so regardless of the hardware, I am never installing Windows 11. 2. Microsoft recommendations serve Microsoft's interests, not necessarily yours. Look surprised when Microsoft "recommends" you dump your perfectly usable computer for Windows 11. 3. Microsoft will be fine no matter what you choose to do on your machine. 4. Look a little deeper into LTSC IoT. It's Windows 10 with security updates and most things work fine. Yes there are trade-offs. For me, who never installs aggressive ring-zero anti cheat software for games, it was a no brainer. I also don't care about Xbox or the Microsoft Store. Having these things stripped from my Windows install is a feature, not a nuisance.
