Why won't a button using a Label show in the keyboard shortcuts list (holding ⌘ key)?

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationSplitView {
            SidebarView()
        } detail: {
            Text("Hello, world")
        }
    }
}

struct SidebarView: View {
    let items = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
    
    var body: some View {
        List(items, id:\.self) { item in
            Text("\(item)")
        }
        .toolbar {
            Button {
                // Do something
            } label: {
                Label("New", systemImage: "plus")
            }
            .keyboardShortcut("n") // Will NOT show in shortcuts list
            
            Button("Play") {
                // Do something
            }
            .keyboardShortcut("p") // Will show in shortcuts list
        }
    }
}

Am I doing something wrong or is this just yet another SwiftUI shortcoming?

If you set labelStyle to titleOnly, then the shortcut will show in the list:

            Button {
                // Do something
            } label: {
                Label("New", systemImage: "plus")
                    .labelStyle(.titleOnly)
            }

Still, that shouldn't make a difference.
