~~Whoever committed this change thinks updating the text on the UI for this system will automagically fix issue.~~

~~It’s like editing the HTML on your bank’s website to show you have $1B in the bank 😂~~

Issue here committer forgot to update UI to expose the feature person was working on

No, the settings already existed, they just forgot to expose it

(Here's some more context: The button is in the UI, but it exposed a completely different function than advertised, probably due to being generated from copy-and-pasting the previous button)
