Well, what's interesting is that when you uninstall Avast, Windows doesn't turn that on the same way it turns on Defender's real-time shield.
Whilst that could be a default setting.
You really need to confirm where these apps are coming from (as I mentioned before from the Windows App store). That in itself could impact the web and file shields, file shield and perhaps the behaviour shield. One thing for sure at least one of them could interact negatively with Avast.
So if Avast doesn't change this setting and Windows doesn't enable it by default. This really needs to be asked of in the Microsoft area, as we are only guessing what exactly it does.
But I think you are going down another rabbit hole in adding more security based functions, when we don't really know exactly what they do and what its interaction with Avast may be
