I suspect that it is some kind of bug in Emacs 29. It seems that the command is only properly working in Emacs 30. I am not sure how I overlooked the problem. Maybe forgot to test things on older Emacs somehow. I think that we should: 1. Remove this from Org 9.7 manual (bugfix) 2. Add a note that the one-liner requires Emacs 30 in the Org 9.8-re manual (main) > Anyway, is it correct that one does not need this command to avoid the > above mentioned interferences, provided that a single Emacs session is > running, and in which no org file has been visited (.org or otherwise)?
