File permissions for "Others" not identified

Open Nemo
Right Click on any file, such as a jpeg for example
Select "Properties"
Select the "Permissions" tab
Nemo displays the "Owner" and their access level, the Group and their access level, followed by another Access level which is not identified. This second access level should be identified as "Others"

Two Access levels are shown under "Group". One should be identified as Group and the other should be identified as "Others"

Clarification only. Not a bug.

    Please see my screenshot below. I added "Others" in red where I think it should be.

    Yep your right that GUI should be fixed. BTW - thie first GUI in my post is the Advanced Permissions view. It can be enabled via Nemo preferences.

    It's been over 6 years and this trivial correction hasn't been made. It still exists in Nemo 6.6.3
