Why does the Template list (by default) include databases that are not actually templates?
A. This occurs for performance and usability reasons. It is relatively quick to get a list of all databases on a server. But in order to produce a list containing only templates, each database must first be opened before it can be determined if the database is in fact a template. Opening a database is a time consuming operation and therefore filtering the list can be quite time consuming. User feedback indicated that the Show templates only filtering option was preferred as an option rather then as the default.
