Hide participant name on video

In previous Zoom versions it was possible to uncheck the option "Always display participant names on their video",  and no name was displayed on video. It seems that on version 5.9.3 this is not an option anymore, even if I uncheck, the participant name is shown on video. Totally excluding the participant name is also not possible anymore. Is there another way of hiding the participant name on video on the current Zoom version?

    The problem is solved in version 5.10.6, just released, but only available through download from https://zoom.us/download

    I have tested it and it works.  I got the information as a reply to my 'request for a new feature' – no, it wasn't a bug...

    I'm having the opposite problem now in 5.13. I WANT the names to always display but am having to hover to make them show - is there a fix for this? (running Mac airbook with M1 chip)
