This is a group policy, not a setting. That makes a big difference in the right context - policies are meant for things that are typically centrally managed in enterprise environments, so the ability for the admin to remotely control every setting individually is important, and requires some kind of central system registry for OS tooling to work with.

Yep, but it still sucks if you are a user trying to figure out how a setting is applied, first delve into some seemingly proprietary config db for edge, and then realise its actually configured via a registry gpo.
