The metro version and the direct t-mobile version have exact the same hardware and software. The sim locking status is based on the IMEI number, which determines if the phone is locked to metro or t-mobile, once the phone connects to t-mobile's (including metro) server's database.
So flashing the TMB firmware won't do anything for you.

Actually, if you setup the s23 fe without a sim card inside, you can't even finish the setup wizard. There is a walk around: right after powering on at the start screen with choosing languages, press vol up, vol down and power button at the same time, then it would allow you to finish the setup wizard without a sim card.
If you put in a metro/tmo sim card later inside the phone, it will force you to restart which would actually factory reset the phone and you have to setup again.
If you switch sim cards between metro and tmo, the phone will load metro or t-mobile apps and settings including boot animation automatically.
