The things that were called change bars were not what I would have
called change bars.  Instead of getting a bar in the left margin for
text that was "different", what you got was a line through the text.

You can get those change bars if you hand-create a template file that
uses the changebar style name.

The reason why it's not documented, or hooked into the system for real,
I suspect, is that they're not what people expect from change bars...
