In some cases you are right. The left on is longer,
but exists for displaying. Because it is readable.

Hi DaLiMan,
have a look at
man 5 vdr
"If a short name is available for this
channel, it follows the full name and is delimited by a comma,
as in
RTL Television,RTL:...
"
so left is the long name, right is short name.
BR,
