Org does not know if you want to store link to file or to this specific
line. The current default is trying to store link to current line,
stripping "#" to disambiguate from custom ID search string.
See 4.8 Search Options in File Links

You can set `org-id-link-to-org-use-id' to non-nil (4.5 Handling Links).
Then, Org will store link to current file/heading instead of more
generic link. Latest version of Org will also auto-assign TITLE as the
link description.
Canceled.
You may consider sending patch for Org manual if you think that we can
do a better job describing how Org handles links.
