Why are you look at that version?  It's an UNSTABLE DEVELOPMENT
version, which normal people should not be using.

I sincerely doubt that the docs showed this example with
commented-out lines.  If it did, this was a temporary issue and
would have been removed in 2.11.58.

You should read the 2.12 docs.

That's exactly how instrumentName and shortInstrumentName work.
Please re-read the very first paragraph of that subsection.

It works in 2.13.12, as can be seen in the docs.  I doubt that
2.13.11 was any different.
