As darcilicious mentioned, this is standard practice. Otherwise a big portion of your items will all get collected under the letters A and T. Which then fails to make them easier to navigate to using the index letters, because once you’ve jumped to e.g. “T”, you may have to scroll through an awful lot of movies before eventually reaching your target.
If you are still convinced that your way is better, see: Always missing "The" "El" "Der" "Die" "Das" - #3 by OttoKerner
