Plex ignoring filename, shortening name of extra to single word, not even the first word of filenam?

Weird since causing it go from “Some specific opening” to “Opening” (when there’s potentially a different opening for every season of an anime, sometimes more) would seem to only add confusion. Maybe it’s a lazy optimization for people who don’t bother renaming files and it’s some convoluted file with CRC32 and everything in the filename?

Personally I’d consider this behavior (at least, without a way to disable it and ideally have it off by default on new installs and installs that haven’t triggered it yet) a bug, since it’s silently changing the metadata without any way to override it.
