Haven’t tested this with the most recent Windows 11 installer but in the past what I do during the install is select that I’m setting the system up for a corporate / domain account. From there it allows to enter a normal Windows username/password like normal (you don’t actually need a domain name but you can make one up if you want).
I use Linux, so I haven’t run into this myself, but I assume that one can buy a copy of Windows 11 Pro separately from the PC itself, even if one doesn’t currently have the Pro edition.

That is only an option on the Pro version. Most computers come with Home.

Yeah. Though this says that they’re currently out-of-stock of the USB installer.
