Thunderbird confusion about feeds and folders

I am somewhat confused as to how Thunderbird handles feed subscriptions. Under "Blogs & News Feeds", I have created a folder called "Jobs", and put several RSS subscriptions there, which appear as children under "Jobs". However, I noticed some subscriptions (like all-acad.com) were missing from the tree, however, the articles appear whenever I select "Jobs" directly. Upon investigating this, I found that each feed appeared to be in its own subscription folder. I've tried to move the subscriptions directly into the jobs folder, and ended up with this mess (see picture). The structure under Subscriptions does not appear to be mirrored in the main window. Furthermore, when I remove subscriptions, their messages still appear in the folders. Is this a bug? It seems way to messed up to be a UI decision...
