iot ltsc is a good choice. but looks that MS begins to destroy it, telemetry, force dump generation appear in recent upgrades.
It's never been "better", it's just no in-box apps(achievable without chopping with just customappslist in uupdump) and more control(just like education, for example). Down underneath all that it's the same exact windows. Editions don't "make anything better" per se, they just allow you to do more stuff the higher you go.
I tried W11 Enterprise LTSC build 26100.1742 and I did not find it to be more performant. I intentionally install it on an hdd and it booted sluggishly just like consumer W11 and it consumes roughly the same amount of ram in idle, freshly booted. It did have smaller disk footprint due to lack of modern apps, and that settings related to ads, suggestions, recommendations, etc. are not available; in fact they are disabled by default.
