Switch values to rows in matrix creates blank first row

[jpshepard]

I am using the "switch values to rows" functionality in a matrix, found in Values > Options. I notice this creates a blank first row - is there any way to remove it?

Why is the first row blank when swapping columns to rows?

What does your visualization pane look like?

I would like to remove that blank space. There does not seem to be any reason for it to be there. Do you have a suggested solution?
