Thanks for raising this issue.

This is a docs error and has been fixed with [[DOCS] Fix typo in `action.destructive_requires_name` breaking change by jrodewig · Pull Request #83085 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/83085).

In 8.0+, the `action.destructive_requires_name` setting defaults to `true`:
