^^ I also prefer the Classic Tor Project websites for many things, but this man page is over 5 years out of date.
Type 'man tor' or 'man torrc' in the console or use current html pages: https://manpages.debian.org/main/tor/tor.1.en.html or https://manpages.debian.org/main/tor/torrc.5.en.html
As far as I know, it never did much - the relays do not have a proper configuration, the standard nickname, etc.
The Tor Relay Configurator prevented exactly that. A clean torrc was produced, IPv4 or dual stack. Many years ago I produced my first torrc myself using Felix's website and I have recommended tor-relay.co to many people.
