My commenter on the internet, consumer-facing Windows is bloat city and will not grant the freedom to cut down the garbage holding performance back like Linux Distros do. If you have Win10/11 Enterprise LTSC and run a few debloat scripts maybe, but that's not something an ordinary person can gain access to without piracy, and it's unlikely that the "stripped down Windows version for gaming" becomes a product without either restrictions or a price premium to the general public.
