Windows software can be downloaded anyware. You are not locked into the "Microsoft World".
Same with Android. You are not locked into the "Google World". You can download third part apps from many source. Not just the App store.
Like most I have both. But I rarly use the Ipad anymore.

All of this "Lock In" discussion is basically narrow-minded rhetoric IMO
I choose my devices based on experience and fit for purpose not based on what is or isn't popular and because it's brand.
Reality is:
If you buy a Android device you have to choose apps available to Android.
If you but a Windows device you have to choose apps available to Windows
If you but a Apple device you have to choose apps available to Apple
The only real difference is that Apple IOS Apps are purchased through one interface (iTunes).......but there are many different App choices and many different developers that provide Apps through iTunes.
IMO it makes searching, managing and paying for Apps very quick, easy and simple.
Putting all of that Aside people should just purchase the device that best suits their needs and budget and ignore all the Anti-Apple/Anti-Windows/Anti-Android rhetoric.
