Did you receive this document with a replacement cable you bought from Brompton? They sometimes look antiquated but I found the documentation provided with original parts always helpful.
It's pretty trivial to update either the pdf or the webpage with some reference to model year. I've been in engineering and design for decades and it's pretty much standard operation procedure to index all technical documentation in that manner.

My feeling is that Brompton has really dropped the ball on the tech side since about 2014. There hasn't been a new tech video on their Youtube channel since then although there are plenty of marketing videos.

I did not buy a cable from Brompton. I shortened the original cable after a handlebar swap.
