Windows 10: Cannot disable lock screen in Windows 10 Pro version 1909

Using the Group Policy Editor, the options under "User Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Control Panel >> Personalization" do not include Do not display the lock screen. This option does not appear under "All Settings" either. Is going the regedit route the only option available now or am I missing something?
