Ofcourse you should use Staff.OttavaBracket, but in `octU_single'
OttavaBracket.stencil is set to ly:line-spanner::print, which doesn't
support 'shorten-pair, as far as I know.
You would need to do:
"testing2" = {
\octU_single
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.bound-details.left.X = #-10
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.bound-details.right.X = #10
c''''1
}
\score { \"testing2" }
That's the disadvantage of using ly:line-spanner::print as stencil for
OttavaBracket.
Cheers,

P.S.
There were some typos in your post, making it hard for people helping you
error: syntax error, unexpected '''
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.shorten-pair = #'(-10 . -10)
\octU_single c''’
'1
error: EOF found inside string
\score { \"
testing2” }
