Tests only cover (some) built-in backends. And they do not always test
documented features. AFAIK, text used when exporting fuzzy links without
description is not something we document. Individual backends are not
constrained to follow any specific convention in such scenario, although
built-in backends generally handle certain things similarly (often,
because they are used as a template for each other).

It does nothing because it is one of the options that must be set before
Org mode is loaded. Resolving buffer-local variables happens after the
major mode is loaded.
