Great question! You did configure it that way, so it might be worth asking yourself.
It is impossible to configure recent ipads in any other way. There are no established 3rd party OSes that you can install, even with great effort. IOS does not respect user freedom. As an example, see the restrictions on running code that Apple didn't approve of (directly, or, in the EU, indirectly).
Cool, great. That’s got nothing to do with Activation Lock.
