I confirm what others say, JDK 17 support and Jakarta EE support are two separate things.
GeoServer would also not work on Tomcat 10, for the same reason, an application can only support J2EE, or Jakarta EE, but cannot support both, the day we switch GeoServer will stop working on older containers. I'd like to stress another bit, as the documentation states, quoting: "Running on Java 17 (experimental!) <https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/java.html#running-on-java-17-experimental> ". I'm not aware of anyone running GeoServer on Java 17 in production, if you try that, please let us know how it goes (after you switch to a J2EE compatible container).
