activate a 2022 VM on a 2019 hyper-V host that has a 2022 data center license for it?

Hey all,
We are currently running hyper-v on 2019. I need to install a 2022 VM server due to application requirements. the hyper-V servers have 2022 datacenter licensing, but are still on 2019... I dont have time to upgrade the hyper-v hosts at this time.
If we went this route, how could i activate the 2022 VM, because i don't think AVMA works on higher versions than the host, despite being within licensing compliance for it.
Or am I mistaken and this isnt possible?

Putting bias aside, the way this is presented changes how it lands This probably isn’t the last word on it. That’s just my read on it.

Stepping back, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven which is why this is getting picked apart Interested to see the follow-up. At least from my perspective.

this feels like a half-step, not a full move and that’s what people are responding to That’s what changes the context.

Honestly, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage That part stands out. That’s just how it reads to me.

this comes across more reactive than planned and that friction is hard to ignore That part stands out. Not convinced this is settled yet.

I get the idea, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s where it gets complicated

If we’re being honest, the wording alone shifts how people read this Feels like an opening move, not an ending. Others will probably see it differently.
