Most people who want auto login don't want to type their password for
the screen lock. In fact, having a screen lock with autologin is quite
useless as an attacker can simply reboot to gain access to the desktop
_unless_ you're an advanced user who has configured disk encryption.

If that's the case, you should be able to simply remove your user from
the nopasswdlogin group, as you have done.
