I mean, the issue literally is that the option exists, it just doesn't work. It doesn't sound intentional.

But then again, it was reported 9 months ago. It should have been fixed by now.

It might not be true in this instance, but I've seen so many times where "the option doesn't fully work and hasn't been working for a while, so let's just remove it entirely" has happened to features in other products.
