CardDAV account name affix "oA" and "Aw"

[anna]

I use DAVdroid 1.6.4-ose on a Huawei P9 Lite with EMUI 4.1.1, Android 6.0.

Because I had trouble with the sync, I added a new CardDAV account. Now, some days later, I don’t now why (sync every 1440 minutes in DAVdroid options), the sync works again. If I take a closer look to the contacts now, both, the old http-CardDAV and the new https-CardDAV account are listed under every contact entry. The http-CardDAV account has the name affix “oA” and the https-CardDAV the name affix “Aw”.

What does “oA” and “Aw” mean?

OK, it’s a Hash (Computing). But this link doesn’t helps me.

Does this mean I shall ignore it - without risk?

Exactly. It’s just a workaround to avoid that the same address book URL can only be used by one account.
