    Also playing with Explorer settings made my icons blurry for some reason.

    Same stuff as Enterprise has, at least for me. Settings app doesn't have some pages like "Gaming" and "Cortana", also on System page there are a lot less options.

    By setting the key with dism /image:*mountpath* /set-edition:CloudEdition

    I was able to recreate it, and make a installation ISO.

    I read that a local account is not supported, is that true?

    Yes, on setup it does not allow local account. There might be a workaround, but I'm not sure about it.

    I started to think: what happens if Win11 Feature Experience Pack is installed on Server 2022?
    Or is it even possible in any way?

    It's useless. Most main programs need dependencies which are being splitted in variable System packages.

    Don't get yourself lost: Windows is actually

    Product policy (controlled by Certificates in C:\Windows\System32\spp\tokens\skus)
    +
    Packages

    X Certificates + X Package combinations = X SKU (Edition)

    X
    =
    Core
    Professional
    EnterpriseS
    ServerCor
    Server Desktop Experience
    Eval
    Preview

    Certificates, soul of Windows.
