You're facing an issue where the download link for the Windows installer blocks you because it's designed for Windows OS X. Since your Mac doesn’t have a physical drive, you’ll need alternative ways to get the ISO. Look for websites that offer downloads specifically for macOS or virtualization solutions like VMware or VirtualBox to run the installer in a compatible environment. If such options aren’t available, you might consider using a USB drive later or exploring Windows compatibility tools.

Consider an alternative method such as using a third-party utility to load the ISO directly onto your USB drive.

Find downloads on the side... Reddit link for Microsoft software swaps. You'll need the ISO file and a flash drive. It might be possible to boot from the command line.

Yes, you're right to be skeptical.
