This card and player's PID is strange  IMO
I'm seeing  This  and understand it.

My issue is when I search for for Michael Jefferson  or Michael Jefferson Jr  they do not show I only see Mike Jefferson which shows on both of them.
If there is a PID with Jr in it why does it not show up when you do a search for it?    Should Mike Jefferson name  be removed as the card does not show Mike?

I may be missing something here.  Help me to understand it

"Mike Jefferson" works because that's the bio name, then the "Michael Jefferson Jr." card just has Mike's PID linked. If the card's Name had "budler" with Mike's PID, it would have the same behavior.

If we add "Michael Jefferson Jr." as an alias to Mike's profile, you'll see it in search results AND any future cards would link "Michael Jeffson Jr." with this PID.

Also the stuff after the PID in the link doesn't affect anything. The following link will also go to Jefferson's bio page:
