Drag down the notification shade from the top edge, and (depending on
manufacturer variations) you should see a brightness slider ...

Not on my very standard Android 11 there isn't

What make/model? It's been stock on my Pixels for years, on a Huawei v9 tablet, and was on a Samsung I inherited ...

My Pixel 6a does not have that. You have to pull down the notification
shade once - then you see the quick setting icons. Then pull it once
more down to see more quick setting icons and the brightness slider. I
believe this at how it's done at least since Android 12.

One exception: when the device is locked, a single slide from top will
open the notification drawer fully expanded in with the brightness
slider visible.

No.

There appear to be these free no ad apps which might work for the OP. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arogulin.brightness https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hasmetd.easyslider https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.top10labs.AutoBright

I just get a collction
of icons for turning things on and off (WiFi, Bluetooth, Torch, etc.)

Similar icons here (google call them tiles) does your shade pull down a second level for more? Can you customise them? (maybe a pencil icon)

Do you think this ad free non-root customizing tool can help the OP?

1. Install netvor settings database editor
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netvor.settings.database.editor
2. Install netvor settings database provider/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.netvor.settings.database.provider/
3. Enable WRITE_SECURE permission
adb shell pm grant com.netvor.settings.database.provider android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
4. Toggle adaptive brightness value
adaptive brightness toggled = 1

These free no ad apps have easy access to "Brightness" & "Display"
where some of them specifically change how it all works when locked. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.velis.auto.brightness https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apps.settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hasmetd.easyslider
