No, it is there. open the Styles and Formatting window,  first button on the Formatting toolbar (or 
just enter <F11>).

When panel opens, if still set to install defaults, you'll be on the Paragraph tab with Default 
Style selected and the "filter" dropdown list set to Automatic. With that filter in place 
Horizontal Line is not a listed paragraph style.  Change the drop down filter to ALL, or to HTML 
and you'll see the Horizontal Line.

Unfortunately, the line weights for the paragraph border (just the bottom edge) set by the 
Horizontal Line style default settings are too thin. And the associated text handling for the 
paragraph style don't seem correct--but that could just be misuse on my part. 

Paragraph bottom border assigned as horizontal line with auto-replace of character triplets seem to 
have more reasonable default line weights--but since those are a "direct styling" of each 
paragraph, it is more efficient in the long run to figure out use of the style and formatting panel 
to handle whole document.
