Thanks for checking!
I still don't understand why it was turned into a function since I
cannot find the relevant discussion.

Bastien?

If not making `org-insert-property-drawer' a command back, we can amend
the manual, as suggested.

See the attached patch.

Subject: [PATCH] org-manual.org: Clarify that `org-insert-property-drawer' is
 not a command

* doc/org-manual.org (Drawers): Emphasize that
`org-insert-property-drawer' is not interactive command, but a
function.

 You can interactively insert a drawer at point by calling
 ~org-insert-drawer~, which is bound to {{{kbd(C-c C-x d)}}}.  With an
-active region, this command puts the region inside the drawer.  With
-a prefix argument, this command calls ~org-insert-property-drawer~,
-which creates a =PROPERTIES= drawer right below the current headline.
-Org mode uses this special drawer for storing properties (see
