There are two bleed methods on the menu system on T4 one of which is for use when the ABS modulator has been replaced.

I don't know why they didn't mention this in the brake maintainence section

Even using T4 you need to manually depress the brake pedal as well to ensure that all the air is out of the system.

As others have said it's not unique to MGR, a lot of other manufacturers require the use of the diagnostic system to effectively purge the system of air.
