Am I supposed to see these section headings in the Info dir?

I see various section headings for other manuals installed in
/usr/local/share/info but not for the ones in the Emacs provided
dir file.  This is vanilla Emacs 28 -Q on a mac.  The top is the Info
dir right after starting Emacs and the bottom is the contents of
/Applications/GnuEmacs.app/Contents/Resources/info/dir.

I can open another bug if this gets involved.
