Your Godot version:

v4.5.stable.official

Issue description:

In the Rendering section of the Thread-safe APIs page, it says:

Instancing nodes that render anything in 2D or 3D (such as Sprite) is not thread-safe by default. To make rendering thread-safe, set the Rendering > Driver > Thread Model project setting to Multi-Threaded.

Note that the Multi-Threaded thread model has several known bugs, so it may not be usable in all scenarios.

However, Multi-Threaded is not an available setting as of PR godotengine/godot#98383:

I am trying to find information about the capabilities and limitations of rendering on a different thread and I suspect this entire section is out of date, or needs expanding on.
