[Question] Wiki—post-lapse stability example parameter inconsistency?

Question

The post-lapse stability example under the FSRS v4 header appears to use the default parameters from the FSRS v3 section, not those from the v4 section.

e.g. $S^\prime_f(S=100) = 2\cdot 2^{-0.2} \cdot ((100+1)^{0.2}-1) \cdot e^{1(1-0.9)} \approx 3$

corresponds to the params in this list from v3: var w = [1, 1, 5, -1, -1, 0.1, 1.5, -0.2, 0.8, 2, -0.2, 0.2, 1];

where I'd have expected to use w_11–w_14 = 2.18, 0.05, 0.34, 1.26.

Is this an error in the wiki, or am I understanding this incorrectly? Thank you!

The parameters are selected arbitrarily.
