> as has been the case for several years with Windows 10

It was not mandatory in Windows 10, thus there was nothing to bypass (on Home maybe you had to ensure you are not connected during OOBE though, at least on some versions)

IIRC in the official specs of Windows 11 Home they specify that you must have an Internet connection and an MS account for the initial setup.

I doubt killing processes during OOBE is officially supported...
