It's pretty unlikely it'll stay incorrect but I suppose they wouldn't
be bugs if they made sense.

No, there is no setting to decide how list view is built.  It'll
ultimately be themeable but currently List View items are built
according to the following logic:

$TITLE $SEASONx$EPISODE - $SUBTITLE

else

$TITLE - $SUBTITLE

else

$TITLE
