The example variable name "$backupnstanceCreate" looks like a typo (missing "I") and is inconsistent with nearby "$backupInstance" variables; this makes copy/paste examples harder to follow. Please rename it to "$backupInstanceCreate" (or similar) consistently.

| CmkIdenityId is a required parameter. |

This example description contains typos and refers to the wrong/unclear parameter name. "UserAssgined" should be "UserAssigned", and the required CMK identity parameter should match the actual cmdlet parameter name (CmkUserAssignedIdentityId).
