Why is it still an accepted convention not to DOG your "legacy" channel(s) but DOG newer post-Digital ones?
Eg. BBC Four and C4's brand extensions, when 1/2/4 proper are DOGless.
If I'm not mistaken, UTV had a DOG at least a few years before ITV followed suit in 2013.
I'm not convinced they need to be a thing anyway. In the days of analogue satellite and cable yes there was a case for it as not all systems could give you recall of the channel name easily. But ever since the EPG became A Thing, I haven't seen the point.
