    Hi Enigma ,

     

    1. What you need to know is that the "people" and "group" type columns in the SharePoint list are search columns. You can refer to this post .

    2. Based on your description, I think SharePoint references the information in the person selector field and hides the data in the user list. You can refer to this post .

     

    Best Regards,
