Improved != Introduced
Though I don't see any reason to use Win98FE over SE anyway
A few minutes of Googling has failed to reveal what, exactly, "improved" means in a technical context here. So, sure, maybe 98 FE has exactly the same support for WDM audio drivers as 98 SE, and people have just been spreading unfounded rumors for the last twenty years. Why not. 😜 But I doubt you're going to find anything from Creative that officially supports installing WDM drivers in 98 FE.

For all we know, maybe they just included better WDM drivers and an improved NTKERN.VXD. And no, I don't think 98FE has exactly the same support as 98SE, or else NUSB wouldn't have needed to have two different versions for FE and SE. Either way, there are many other reasons to use 98SE instead of 98FE anyway, like somewhat better stability. As for people spreading unfounded rumors for decades, well it's not at all impossible.

I have a CT4780 and was able to install using this CD. I have uploaded the ISO to archive.org:
Thank you from me for this file! I had struggled with several incompatible drivers until this one.
