(my opinion)
I know that there needs no XYZ(or XB) in the case of using INIT_ID on DEVC line.
Is this correct?
If true, above input lines are typo.

gforney commented 9 years ago 
yes, you are correct. In this particular example the DEVC does not need an XYZ since
it uses the INIT line.

In example of 'energy_budget_solid', BACKING='INSULATED' is used with TMP_BACK=150 on
SURF line.

If BACKING='INSULATED' is used, TMP_BACK is no meaning.

This was changed since FDS6 RC1.  No LENGTH is needed for screen drag.
