eBay titles from PSA Vault

I'm wondering ... when you put a vaulted card out for sale on eBay ... who "from the vault" is creating the eBay title? A human or some kind of algorithm?
I ask because I have put a lot of vaulted cards up for sale on eBay. Then, MOST of the time, when I go to eBay to try to find my card ... I can't locate it. Try different searches, but just can't get my card to appear. So, I go into the vault, click on "view on ebay" and see that they've attaches a very poor title, hence why I can't find.
Here are two examples, of many. NOTE that I collect japanese non-sports cards, but could be applicable to any genre.
I might have thought they'd use something like-ish to ...
2024 WEISS SCHWARZ RE:ZERO BIG SIS MAID RAM RZ/S116-048 GOLD SIGNATURE PSA 10
2021 WEISS SCHWARZ DANMACHI SWORD PRINCESS AIS DDM/S88-003 GOLD SIGNATURE PSA 10
Many collectors would search on the franchise name (RE:ZERO or DANMACHI), but they might not have the expertise to know how to translate RZ/ and DDM/. Many collectors also would search on the card group (RZ/S116 and DDM/SS8) which are on the slabbed label.
What I got was ...
2024 GOLD SIG #048 PRETTY AND STRONG BIG SISTER MAID, RAM PSA 10
2021 GOLD SIG #003 [SWORD PRINCESS] AIS PSA 10
They left off important information. Like "Card Manufacturer" and "Card Group".
Why exclude information that is right there on the label?
Human or ha-ha AI?

Yikes!!! That seems to miss the mark!!!
Live long, and prosper.
I sold this card through "MC Sportscards".
They listed it as:
TRPC.LF ANTR.WLD, REM PSA 10 2018 WEISS SCHWARZ JPN #060 RZ/S55 GEM MINT
Great job!!
Guess the vault would have listed it as:
2018 #060 TROPICAL LEAF ANOTHER WORLD, REM PSA 10
To leave out important information makes me think some algorithm chops it up.
IMAGINE listing a baseball card without identifying the manufacturer (Topps, Donruss, Fleer, or whatever)!
