Yeah, that’s what I tried, even named the volume Ventura. It has worked in the past with previous releases e.g. Monterey. It sounds like the original poster (and some commenters) was trying to do this too, had done in the past, and was surprised.
The process didn’t give me an installer, it just jumped to the volume building process. TBH I kinda knew it was messed up, but after cancelling and trying again, I just let it go.
I didn’t see any options in the dev site to pull down a full installer.
My M1 is fairly new, so I have recent practice reinstalling Big Sur from scratch if necessary.
