Now, to be sure, there is a fairly limited set of apps that come on the
iPad; 23 apps to be exact, and some of them DO work via an AppleID, but
lots don't require one. You may be bothered about finishing setup by
adding an AppleID from time to time, but you can simply ignore those nags.

 You can also say OK and it will take you to the settings. You can then cancel
out and it will never ask you again.

So we're agreed:
Anyone who claims that an iOS device is just a "dumb terminal" that cannot function without a connection to Apple's servers at all times...
...is just a huge idiot.
