Orbi Wifi 6.... can't hide SSID????

So I just upgraded from an Orbi AC3000 to the new Orbi Wifi 6.   I was able to hide the SSID broadcast with my AC3000.  I can not find an option to hide/cloak the SSID in the new Orbi Wifi 6.   $700 for a router that has a super basic config GUI and it can't hide the SSID???

    Maybe implemented at a future FW update if NG decides to do this. IT was'nt a feature first seen on the Orbi AC either. It was late last year or early this year NG decided to give hidden features to Orbi AC users.
