This approach works beautifully! The installer will complain about TPM2.0 (in my case) and then exit -- but you can right click in the usb drive (or burnt iso disc) and select "Open in Terminal" (or navigate to the drive by terminal) and run the setup.exe with the switch product and the value server.
