    Please rename Enable Instancing at the earliest opportunity to "Enable GPU Instancing" because you are creating a mountain of confusion with your users. Even our own artist was confused by it due to Material Instancing being a very wide and broad subject that has absolutely nothing to do with GPU instancing.

    Consider the google noise:
