It does allow %ps. Currently what is being printed is the function symbol 
of the callback using %pF. I’d like to know why %pF is used instead of

Michal, just to make sure I understand you correctly, do you mean that we
could infer the names of the shrinkers by looking at the names of their callbacks?
