'Companion', an interface oddity?

While pondering what to name a recently acquired companion I noticed something weird at the bottom of the list, namely an entry for a companion which was simply named 'Companion'.
Figuring that it was probably an element which had been damaged by the passage of time I named it 'What?' and went to check which companion now had this name. As it turns out, none of them did.
Does anyone know what this is? I'm guessing it's just a remnant of something which Failbetter forgot to dispose of.

I guess they decided to use the blank slate for a companion as a header. Odd that it shows up at the bottom rather than the top, though.
Welp, I guess I better try and think of something better to name it. It may just be an interface element, but it is MY interface element.

Hah, I never knew you could name that slot! To my knowledge, it's always been labelled 'Companion.' I just took it as a kind of 'header' for the dropdown menu. I never thought to rename it, though... Heh, kudos to you.
I just tried, by the way, and I can do the same.
