Inconsistent labelling between NCBI and CARD of Tet(W/N/W) and Tet(W/32/O) #119

Hello,

tet(W/N/W) is listed twice on NCBI in their reference gene catalog
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pathogens/refgene/#Tet(W/N/W)

As expected: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/WP_122634437.1 is labelled as tet(W/N/W) in CARD.
The second entry https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/WP_024963478.1 is labelled as tet(W/32/O) in CARD.
Further confusing the issue is that Tet(W/32/O) as listed on NCBI https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/WP_204313011.1 is not on CARD.

I think the issue is mostly with NCBI here listing two different genes with the same name, however it still creates a confusing experience on the user-end when reporting their findings from RGI main or bwt.

Perhaps the current tet(W/32/O) as listed on CARD should be TP_tet(W/N/W) as it seems fairly Trueperella pyogenes specific?
