it is in fact something established (istituire in Italian)

in using the English term 'institution' in this sentence as a literal rendering ('the scarce use of the institution'), while not technically incorrect, sounds unnatural to the native English ear (well to mine at least).

the term 'istituto' does not mean method but the point made by Raffaela is that in this case the term istituto refers to the term diritto di recesso, something that your example also confirms.

.. I do not think is the method. "L'istituto del recesso è in primo luogo disciplinato dal codice civile e precisamente dall'art. 1373." https://www.facebook.com/avv.fabiodalessio/posts/53937855614...

with Raffaela in that in this case the term 'istituto' is referring to the right of withdrawal (diritto di recesso). As such you could easily rearrange the sentence and omit 'istituto' altogether, replacing it with a pronoun ('where on a practical level it is hardly used'). Alternatively you could perhaps use the term 'provision' (where on a practical level said provision is hardly used). If you want to avoid any possible confusion, it might be better to simply repeat the term 'right of withdrawal' (where on a practical level the right of withdrawal is hardly used'). The possibilities are many ......

l'istituto is the method in this case, the
diritto di recesso itself
