It is not enough to use --set-customization-variable, the headings
cannot be customized with --set-customization-variable, you need a
customization file. And in order to have both text and anchors in the
header, there is a need to use a function for the header formatting.
I attach a customization file that does what you want, if I understood
your need well.
The command-line should be along:
texi2any --html --set-customization-variable USE_NODES=0
--set-customization-variable NODE_NAME_IN_MENU=0 --set-customization-variable
NODE_NAME_IN_INDEX=0 --init header_with_sections.pm
Beware that this uses interfaces that are not documented and subject to
changes.
