Actually, this is correct. At 5.1 the Tool-tips check box was removed as it is
always enabled unless the extended-tips are selected which override them.

Otherwise the "Extended tips" only become available when the offline help is
installed.  And when offline help is installed and toggled active the "default"
tool-tips--e.g. color names are replaced by the more descriptive tool-tip for
the block of content.  When not installed--the extended tool-tips are either
blank, or are generic.

For example the color picker the extended tip, when en-US offline help is
installed, becomes "Click a color. Click No Fill to remove a background or
highlighting color. Click automatic to reset a font color" for the color
picker.

What might be useful UI would be to provide a UNO action for a GUI button &
keyboard short-cut to toggle between basic and extended tool-tips.

Also, the Extended tips when help is installed is always available for a11y AT
support.
