I don't think regular Windows 11 is that useful in those cases. You probably either want an intranet connected Windows client, that gets activated and updated via a local server. Probably also a LTSC release, that doesn't get feature updates all the time.

Or a Windows 11 IoT image, that only enables some specific features, and is stripped down for a specific purpose.

For individual use I guess the solution is to set it up once with internet connectivity and air gap afterwards.

That's simply not good enough for some purposes. Once a computer is connected to the internet, at all for any amount of time, the system could be considered to be less secure.
