Arcade - dangerous - undocumented

We found a undocumented bug/feature ))

Although the documentation says that [title] is a "Feature Layer based on its name within a map or feature service"

https://developers.arcgis.com/arcade/function-reference/featureset_functions/#featuresetbyname

 

We tried to use it with a file geodatabase/enterprise and feature class name as a second parameter [title]

ArcGIS Pro 3.1.2

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new project in ArcGIS Pro
2. Create a new file geodatabase
3. Create a new polygon feature class, Example name "Transformer"
4. Create an Immediate Calculation attribute rule for the feature class
5. The code of the expression
   var fsTransformer = FeatureSetByName($datastore, "Transformer", ["*"], false)
6. Save the attribute rule
7. Change the feature class name "Transformer" to another name, Example "Apple"
8. Save, close and open the project
9. See the attribute rule - the expression changed to 
   var fsTransformer = FeatureSetByName($datastore, "Apple", ["*"], false)

 

Any comments?
