Stuck halfway through pin lock setup

I tried to setup a pin # lock on my Android tablet (version 9, 5 Jun 2019 patch). Evidently, the first pin entry was not what I thought I entered, and I can't replicate it. So, my tablet is still set up with just a swipe unlock. Any attempt to change the lock mechanism just goes to the 'Re-enter pin' screen. Essentially, at this point, I can't confirm the pin entry, and Android never thought to allow users to restart the setup process, as far as I can see.

Is there some way to reset this process and start over with entering the first pin again, or with changing over to a different lock mechanism? I would rather not fully reset if at all possible.

I went ahead and forced the factory reset. Restart process asked for new screen lock setup. Was able to set up the desired password this time. Thanks for all who offered help.
