    When finding and replacing a string ending in a "/ " with nothing (“”) the find and replace adds an extra digit.

    For example in the string: "Category / subject / 03 - Task"

    Replacing "Category / subject / " with "" (to leave just the "03 - Task") will result in "003 - Task" - adding an extra 0.

    This is the same if the leading numerals are different, for instance "11 - Task" becomes "111 - Task"

    This happened in 2019 and the current 2020 versions of AI. On Mac OS X 10.15.2 (and I recall it still happening in older Mojave).
