"in my case I set different SSIDs for the different radios and frequencies."
In essence just press the disconnect button in Windows 11 dialogues for the 2.4 GHz SSID, as you use different ones easy to do.
Settings > Home > WiFi > Show available networks > Disconnect the SSID for 2.4 GHz. Leaving the SSID for 5 GHz connected.
You can still connect to Printers and other devices that are 2.4 GHz single band, the WAP/router sorts that out.
The Wireless Card (Intel AX211) properties on mine are set to 1. No preference.
This makes it only connect with 5 GHz to the WAP(router).
It is not a fault as a lot of Routers can use both 2.4 and 5 GHz at the same time. Likewise a slightly lower than max Wireless signal strength won't affect speed much.
"Why does my Intel Wi-Fi AX200 keep switching from 5 Ghz to 2.4 Ghz on Windows 11 23H2"
How do you know that ? maybe it is using both.
