[NOTE: I hope this makes sense, I'm exhausted. If it is too incoherent then I will make sense out of it all after my two hours of sleep.]

I have a bot which publishes my git commits into one of the channels and I wanted it to have a bit of a 'edgier' role tag rather than just bot. So I added a custom role along with the description for it; let's say that the role tag for this is der Veranstalter (the organizer). Alright, so I add my bot to this category in the permissions page and removed it from the one which is designated for bots. No go.

It still shows both der Veranstalter and BOT (yes, in upper-case as well) beside each other in that order. When I look in the permissions for the bots I cannot see an entry for my bot there which is perfectly fine since I removed the entry...and that's the issue. I still shows my custom created user as a bot while not being listed in that category.

This is obviously not a big issue at all. I just want things to be the way I want them to be and so on and so forth.
