Bypass Bitlocker check for Iron Keys

[Windows 11]

I have configured a Group Policy to force removable drive encryption via BitLocker. This works perfectly until someone uses and Iron Key encrypted drive. Then Bitlocker tries to Bitlock the already encrypted Iron Key drive. Ideally, we would like to force users to either Bitlock removable drives or use Iron Keys which have their own drive encryption. Is there a way to do this? Is there a way to bypass the Bitlocker check for Iron Keys when they are plugged into the PCs?
