Bypass activation lock

Upon restart (and holding down option) I am presented with a padlock icon and a password field.

The computer in question is a 2015 15" MBP. I've done some research and it seems that if the password is forgotten (I don't remember setting one to begin with) the only way to remove it is by taking it to an Apple store...but a.) there is no way I have proof of purchase documentation for this and b.) I doubt they'd look at a computer that is by their own definition, "vintage".

So what can I do here?
