I'm more surprised that the 12-16 slots of BBC Three aren't so much branded as such (nor are they really presented as the zone for that audience, with little bits of "The Next Step" here and there, plus a new show that's produced by BBC Studios Kids & Family but shifted to BBC Three instead of CBBC).
There could be an argument that should the closure of CBBC go ahead that BBC3 should go 24/7 with a CBBC slot within the day (but not all day) and a teen slot in the early evening, but I guess with BBC4 in the firing line the plan is to lose one stream and have CBeebies and BBC3 share one stream.
