Original Note:
NNN, the CN is wrong. The USB drive does not contain a recovery key but instead has a startup key, which still uses the TPM to create a combined encryption key for boot. It does not disable any BitLocker or TPM protections, in addition to being hardware-bound just like a PIN. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/operating-system-security/data-protection/bitlocker/faq#key-management
