Searching for volte in config finds nothing.

There is one entry on SIM preferences to activate WiFi calls, with the

VOLTE is something completely different. That describes the technology
that is used for voice calls. It is standard and newer ones use 5G.

Wifi calling is activated to have better connections in buildings. It is
the fall back in case the connection in the public network cannot be
sustained like in large office buildings or in rural areas with weak
coverage. It is not particularly clever to deactivate wifi-calling.
