I think that is an artifact of the files being created with the wrong names.
For example, with tape 169249, after you skip the UFDs, tito -t prints

   (SYS)            .SHR    1977-01-26 22:22   [1,4]
   (SYS)            .LOW    1977-01-26 22:23   [1,4]
   (SYS)            .SHR    1986-08-19 03:53   [1,4]
   (SYS)            .LOW    1975-10-24 14:52   [1,4]
   (SYS)            .SAV    1964-01-02 00:01   [1,4]
   (SYS)            .SAV    1964-01-02 00:01   [1,4]

All the file names are missing. That seems not right.
