We can replace a silly behaviour with another silly one, yes. But is
there any non-silly one?

The example above is a bit misleading because a description is not
mandatory. In your situation, Option "num:t" would be sufficient to
produce something.

If you look at it, this will not appear in the (PDF) output as there's
nothing to refer to, much like what happens in ox-texinfo.

In any case, what exactly do you suggest in this situation, i.e., what
should be displayed?
