Also known as the exact same thing

I've noticed a few like these:

I assume maybe the set was renamed at some point so the aka can just go? :-)

Thanks @sid3windr!

The AKA comes from the UK catalogues. 99% of the time they gave sets different names to the US names in the 80s and 90s.

^ Sure, it's definitely interesting to see that the names sometimes varied wildly as every marketing department could do their own thing.

But there's also a lot of sets where there's no AKA noted, which is fine if it either does not differ or is unknown; but here, isn't "Huw, also known as Huw" a bit superfluous? :-)
