annoying problem with the Platform Category

After importing NES roms as "Nintendo Famicom", I could not find the system under Consoles. It turns out that it was put under root for some reason (ie alongside Arcade, Computers, Consoles). But, not just the console name -- its sub-categories were put there too. It got worse. When I deleted one of them, more categories popped up under root. Now I have what seems like dozens of wrongly placed categories but no quick way to re-organize them (it takes 5-10 seconds after clicking before the delete command can be used).

[edit: I read the deletion warning again that after deletion the subcategories would be moved under root by design. I am confused by this behavior]
[edit2: even though I deleted both the Famicom and Famicom Disk System and they have no associated games, their empty playlists remain and I am diligently working at deleting them slowly. It's like a secret LaunchBox built-in mini-game, killing zombie playlists from a failed import! This game mechanics is all grinding though]

I think this is not the first time I encountered this issue. I suspect the problem may be related to renamed system names.
