If it's true that there isn't (and I honestly wouldn't know, so it's not
that I don't believe you), then I'm guessing it's simply an oversight.

Regardless, there's nothing technically difficult about removing an extra
description.  Exdescs are stored in a linked list, so you can use the
REMOVE_FROM_LIST macro to remove it and then free up the memory it uses to
prevent a memory leak.

It should be a relatively quick and easy job, especially if you're
familiar with how OasisOLC is setup.
