Creating Legacy Contact with Access Key

Same question as never got answered before:


(1) iphone 13: Add Legacy Contact brings me to contacts, then I choose the person I want to be my legacy contact? But there is nothing that shows this person is identified as such.


(2) Access Key: No instructions and tapping on that section in settings produces no action.


So how does this really work because googling does not provide an answer.


iPhone 13 mini, iOS 16
