Windows 10: Why I have BitLocker key in my account while I have w11 home and not pro?

When I go to my devices > info & support in my Microsoft account there is the "BitLocker data protection - Device encryption helps protect your data" tab and when I click the "Manage Recovery Keys" button I go to a page named "BitLocker recovery keys" and I can see my laptop's name, my key ID, the recovery key, the driver and the date of upload. I have w11 home not pro. As far as I know w11 home has the basic Device Encryption and not the BitLocker as the w11 pro. So, what is this "BitLocker recovery keys". Is it just the key for the basic Device Encryption of w11 home. If so, then why

Bitlocker key can not be found in the microsoft account

After a regular update of Windows my Notebook asked me for the Bitlocker Key although I never activated this. The device is listed in my account but in the list of keys it's not.

Simply doing a reset is definitely not an option, the data is needed.

Every single suggestion for how to find the key is absolutely useless so far.
