Musescore 4.0 has an issue with mordents. The Mordent Ornament is incorrectly labeled a "Short Trill" and the reverse mordent, or inverted mordent, is labeled as "Mordent". Additionally, the "Short Trill", which is actually a mordent, plays the note a whole step above, rather than the note diatonically above. This is fixed by selecting the baroque option in properties, but this is another mislabel. Thanks.

Are you sure this is MuseScore 4 only?
There has been a change in MuseScore 3.6 already with those, see also #316784: The mordent notation is the notation for the inverted mordent
