Another method of bypassing the account lockdown still exists. You simply have to enter OOBE\BYPASSNRO in the command prompt during the Windows 11 setup process, which allows you to skip the connection to the Internet and thus also the link to a Microsoft account.
I couldn’t get the command prompt up (Shift+F10 I believe) on the last laptop I bought, which I think had Windows 11 SE (don’t let the name fool you, it’s the worst one). I just installed Windows 10 instead

I accidentally did this with a clean install by not having Wi-Fi drivers installed.
