Have Shimano changed the design of their R785 levers recently?

The "lug screw" in this video,

at 1'24", isn't on my lever. The only way I can see to bleed is to undo the silver torx head cap. The problem is that the Shimano funnel doesn't screw into that, making the whole business a bit messy.

Any thoughts? Or am I missing something?

I think I can answer my own question! Yes, the lever design has changed. There's a screw behind the torx cap:
