i can't say I've ever had much experience with timed download links for software. generally the software that I've used has relied on a permanent link that you can always access and then premium features for the link is locked behind a license key.
Well you can uninstall Edge on the EU variant. Microsoft doesn’t want people just posting a link to that ISO on a forum somewhere. It has some other unique features but that’s the only one I remember.
