IoT Enterprise and LTSB are for embedded systems, they lack many of desktop applications and features (like Cortana) found in "regular" Windows. Windows 10 Enterprise is the desktop version, it has everything in Pro, and then some. There's nothing "shady" about Edge.

I view that as an advantage. That's why I use LTSB whenever I set up a Windows desktop for anyone at work.
