Why not set DmiSystemProduct to a hardware from 14,1 through 15,1? This is the range from the first support for Ventura to the last support for High Sierra. Does this variable matter at all?

#   MacOS versions              supported MacBook Pro
# + macOS 10.13 "High Sierra"   MacBookPro3,1 - 15,1
# + macOS 10.14 "Mojave"        MacBookPro9,1 - 15,3  (last 32bit CPU)
# + macOS 10.15 "Catalina"      MacBookPro9,2 - 16,3  (16,3 is last Intel silicon)
# * macOS 11 "Big Sur"         MacBookPro11,1 - 16,3
# * macOS 12 "Monterey"        MacBookPro11,4 - 16,3
#   macOS 13 "Ventura"         MacBookPro14,1 - 16,3

Here's a guide for choosing the SMBIOS. I'll look into it later.
