In a new Android phone, OS version 11, I can't find the change lock screen PIN.

In this phone, privacy and security are separate (i.e., some related questions direct users to "Privacy and Security" -- Change screen lock from password to pin).

The Settings > Security shows the lock screen PIN item, but when opened it does not list an item to change it. And the options of Screen lock, are limited to 1) lock screen timeout and 2) power button activation.

As the screenshot below shows, I have not set up a Device admin app.
