Created attachment 194917 [details] Screenshot demonstrating the problem. Currently, in the Rulers submenu of the View context menu entry in the menu bar, the entry to (dis)enable the horizontal ruler is labelled "Horizontal Ruler", whereas the vertical counterpart is labelled merely "Ruler". Instead, for consistency and clarity (as https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-to-remove-the-horizontal-ruler-in-libreoffice-writer/76659/2?u=rokejulianlockhart demonstrates) they should be labelled merely "Horizontal" and "Vertical" respectively.

Actually, the erroneous label is "Rulers" instead of merely "Ruler", so this is definitely an accident, rather than deliberate (but erroneous regardless).
The "Vertical" item doesn't work without the "Rulers" element - to the latter is more general, it is not only about the horizontal one. It enables the rulers display; and the "vertical" controls if the vertical ruler is visible in rulers visibility mode. But I agree, that this is not really useful. Having two simple separate ones: one for horizontal, and one for vertical, would be much nicer.
