Poe2 Multi Platform gaming with one early Access Key?

No it isn't. You need a key. That's what it clearly says. No cross progression game with a entry fee just lets you play without buying in on another system, unless the game is free like Warframe. Diablo 4, FF14 destiny 2 before "free to play" etc etc etc.

The whole situation is even more confusing. I have PC account Stregobor#0215 and xbox one created when i started poe1 on console Stregobor7865#8748. I bought sup pack on PC account. Which enabled EA access for PC account. Later on i used connect button on account settings and connected PC and Xbox accounts together. No i have 1 account with 2 sub-accounts, BOTH of them are described as "eligible for Path of Exile 2 Early Access!"
Do i have still have to buy xbox sup-pack as JC_GGG said or not?

I read the post https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3586288 few times and it mostly clear. I expect that after login there will be a choice which sub account i want to use and i can play using only one with micro transactions. Thats fine with me. The only thing missing on that page are explanations about keys when merging accounts into sub accounts.

so once more:
My pc and xbox sub-accounts are described as eligible for PoE2 EA, do i have still have to buy xbox sup-pack as JC_GGG said or not?

But this is a free to play game which is why it's so confusing. If I'm able to play my character regardless of platform as I understood it then why on earth would I need two keys for the same account on a free game?

I guess the problem is the early Access. To participate there, you need to buy the Key to gain access. And there is the problem with multiple platforms.
The best comparison is probably d4 where you also need to buy the access on every platform.

Remember the early access for poe is NOT free to play.

What I don't get. How do I even manage to buy a key / supporter pack for each platform (PS5 / PC) on the same sub-account?
If I use my PSN sub-account, it does not allow me to open the PC store on the website.

SHOP UNAVAILABLE
Your account is unable to make purchases here.
Open the shop in game to check out our catalogue of Microtransactions!

On the other hand, I can not buy a PSN supporter Pack for my PC sub-account,
since the PSN store doesn't know about sub-accounts
and will link purchases just to my PSN-ID, which is only linked to my PSN sub-account.

All of this is so confusing.
It would be so much easier, if the accounts would really merge, without having dedicated sub-accounts.

I hope I'm wrong, but I come to the understanding, that it is pointless to have sub-accounts,
which have access to one specific store (PC or PSN) and one specific store only.

Your chacracter will only have premium stash tabs on one plattform and no money in the world can change that.

If I have a character on my PC sub-account, I can play it on Playstation. But I will not be able to buy premium stash tabs for it on PSN. Buying Points on the PSN-Store will go to my PSN sub-account, not the PC sub-account.

I do NOT have a problem, buying stash tabs twice on each platform.
I DO have a problem, that I can't even buy them at all.

Please correct me, if I'm wrong.
I would be more than happy to do some purchases twice, if I could use the same character with premium stash tabs on both platforms.

I think we should prepare for, that no mtx will carry over via crossplay. At least PSN
seems to be very strict in regards to mtx...
