Why does the name of the application in the launcher match the name of the main activity, although the name of the application is written in the manifest?

because the android
launcher is designed this way, it does not launch the application, but the activity, which is why the name of the activity that the launcher launches is displayed there.
all the activities of your application that have <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> are included in the launcher, that is, one application can put several activities in the launcher and they will all have their own name.

android:label specifies the string that will be displayed in the launcher. developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#label

Officially, it won’t work out in any way, it’s useless to write to the developers to help and enable this feature, they scored a bolt on everything.
The only option is to pause synchronization for a while, so that there is less hawala traffic and that's it.
