Summer 15 release missing feature: Display Currency Symbols in Multi-Currency Organizations with Only One Currency


Apparently, in the Summer '15 release, Salesforce addressed this issue, but I cannot find the "Currency Settings" supposedly release anywhere? Our Sandbox and Production are both on Summer '15. When I go to the "User Interface" settings for our org, I do not see the section or the setting referred to

Display Currency Symbols in Multi-Currency Organizations with Only One CurrencyChoose whether to use ISO codes or currency symbols in organizations that have multiple currencies enabled but are using only one currency. Organizations with multiple currencies enabled see ISO codes instead of currency symbols. However, if you have only one currency in your multi-currency organization, you can set a preference to display currency symbols.

Available in: Group, Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, Developer, and Database.com Editions

To display currency symbols, search Setup for User Interface, and then select Show currency symbols instead of ISO codes in the Currency Display Settings section of the User Interface settings page. If you later enable more currencies in your organization, ISO codes display and this preference are no longer available. This preference applies only in the standard Salesforce user interface.
Where is this setting? Help!

Here are some screenshots and more information... Where are "Curency Display Settings" and where is the "Show currency symbols instead of ISO codes" option on this page from our Sandbox, which is on release Sumer 15?
User Interface Settings from Sandbox

We've disabled all other currencies in our multiple currency page (and boy do we wish we had never enabled multiple currencies in the first place)...

Multiple Currencies, all but USD disabled.

We do appear to be on the Summer 15 release on CS9:
Summer 15 logo appears in header

If anyone has any experience with this new setting, please help... Thanks

Oh no... I found this knowledge base article 000220329. Damn... This is like being offered a gift and having it taken away...

However, in order to see this option in the User Interface menu, an Org can only have ever had one currency enabled - there can be no older inactive currencies to use this feature at this time.
 
Why don't I see the "Display Currency Symbols in Multi-Currency Organizations with Only One Currency" in my User Interface Settings?

DescriptionAs of Summer '15, for Multi-Currency enabled Orgs with one currency, we allow the follwoing option:

[User-added image]

This option, "Currency Display Settings" allows Orgs with Multi-Currency to show symbols instead of ISO codes on records.ResolutionAs our documentation states (http://releasenotes.docs.salesforce.com/en-us/summer15/release-notes/rn_forcecom_globalization_multicurrency.htm)

This feature will only be available to multi-currency orgs using only one Currency. There may be confusion because many multi-currency Orgs ARE only using one currency and only have one currency active.

However, in order to see this option in the User Interface menu, an Org can only have ever had one currency enabled - there can be no older inactive currencies to use this feature at this time.
