Well, it's not that you can't afford it. You can't get it at all because it's version made for ATMs, medical equipment etc. You can eventually get evaluation copy which lasts 90 days. That version isn't intended for home users and because of that, it's impossible to get key.Too bad can't afford LTSB

I tried to remove Cortana via.cmd hack but unfortunately you lose the search function, I also think it is not possible.

If I remember correctly, I used this command to uninstall Cortana and its related processes.
How to uninstall and remove Cortana in Windows 10 - Winaero
But considering you lose the search function and possible problems on the Start Menu ... I decided to go back using the good old Macrium.
Now I use O&O Shutup and I have disabled Cortana, keeping the search bar, in the end, she only takes up 30MB of RAM

If you remove Cortana, Listary (Listary – File Search & App Launcher) is great replacement for the built in Windows search. I also use it instead of the Start Menu to launch all my apps. Just double tap the hot key and start typing what you're looking for. It can find apps & files on any storage in an instant.

Besides the considerations about 3rd party manipulated windows isos there is also the fact that what is bloat to some may be required software for others.
One good example is Internet Explorer. I never use it. I only saw it run once in my computer as some old software I used automatically run it to display reports and help files. My wife, on the other hand, NEEDS IE to access some government systems that are Activex based. Without IE a computer is useless for her work.
So if you want a customized install just do it yourself. Do not rely on a 3rd party. Only you know what is or isn't bloat for you,

Who knows if it is or not, that is the big question but it was posted on Majorgeeks so it maybe.
@Umbra: You can trust Mr. Fox and Mr. Phoenix. Mr.Phoenix is one of the editors at Majorgeeks so the ISO is legit. The ISO contains DirectX updates, .net framework 3.5 and even the latest update slipstreamed into it. Even I'm there at their forums under the same name @Vasudev. Moreover you can have complete tweaks by visiting this post Windows 10 Creators Update Bloatware Free Edition
@Vasudev I need Cortana , i need some of the metro apps , because i sync them with my WinPhone
So their ISO is useless to me, about telemetry i can do it by myself.
