Why can't i set a wallpaper for lock screen only?

[Android Central Question]

Hey there, I have a brand new Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro, and i was trying to set a live wallpaper as lock screen only, but the options I have are to set it either as home screen, or both home and lock screen.
Am I doing something wrong?

Where are you getting the live wallpaper , is it download from chrome? Maybe try a app called Zedge it gives option for just one like u want lock screen.I'll leave a link to register so you can communicate here , as a guest account you can't.https://forums.androidcentral.com/showthread.php?t=409154

Welcome to Android Central! I've never seen a device or launcher that allows you to set a live wallpaper for the lockscreen only. Have you seen that before on other devices?

I clearly have the option.

Ok, so you can set a live wallpaper for the lockscreen, and keep a static wallpaper for the homescreen?
