Those who would prefer ITV's primary channel to not have a "1" at the end of its name are perfectly entitled to their opinion. But I doubt that anything they could ever possibly say to me about why they hold that opinion would constitute a logical rationale to me (so please don't bother wasting your keystokes trying to do so). I find it to be an utterly bizarre standpoint.
The BBC's main channel - for example - isn't only called "BBC" with no subsequent number or word whilst all of the others are e.g. numbered from Two upwards etc. I don't see anyone arguing a case for BBC One to drop the "One".
In the days when UKTV's channels had formulaic names, not one of them was called *just* "UKTV" with no subsequent word etc.
I could go on.
