When the M10M was announced and I pre ordered mine, I found out they were no longer including the manual but you could request it free of charge. Once I received my M10M I ordered the manual.
Not sure if the previous M10 models had the same situation but the M240 series came with the manual. It might have started with the M10M.
I like that Leica makes the paper manual a free after-purchase option. TBH, for all the cameras I buy, I rarely read the paper manuals for all the reasons given for the superiority of PDF versions. Besides, some of the manuals are literally 400, 500 or more pages!
And I would barely touch Leica manuals because I'll get fingerprints all over the nice black cover.

(I am fossilizing and still say UI too)
I would interpret those two differently. UI - user interface - is the same for all users. UX - user experience is different for each user due to various factors relevant to each user, such as level of experience, familiarity with a brand's previous products, how a given person's hands do or don't work with the physical design of the product, etc. I could see some overlap, such as how the UI could suit one person better due to the physical nature of their hands, whereas the UI would be less suitable for someone else.
At least one site I referenced claims UI is for digital only interfaces, but I don't fully agree.
I just wanted to remind everyone that Leica's printed manual service still works. I recently bought an M10-P Safari that didn't include a manual, so I followed the steps outlined in the first post of this thread. About ten days later, a brand new printed manual arrived from Germany.
