Schematic terminals have multiple unknown internal connections

I am working in AutoCAD electrical 2020, and trying to fix up my from-to report. I noticed that many lines related to terminal blocks have no connection on one side. In trying to figure out where this comes from, I noticed that many of my terminals have 2 internal connections and 1 external connection, which leads to a weird from-to response. I don't understand why the terminals have 2 connections on one side, when there is only one wire going into the terminal, and one wire coming out. Is there any way to get rid of this extra connection, so the from-to report doesn't have any empty lines?

The idea now is that you should use the TSE (Terminal Strip Editor) to edit the terminals so that you have one connection on each side.

 

However... There are SOME issues...

It might work, it might not work.

I see what you mean, but the larger issue here is that the TSE shows 3 total connections, when there are only 2 wires coming into the terminal on the schematic.

Then we need to see the contractions on the other sides of the signal arrows.
