I seem to recall this is something to do with level one and level two
drivers. Earlier versions of the Trump card had only level one drivers
and later versions had the level two one which allowed the user to make
sub directories. I also seem to recall that this was brought in from
another system (maybe the Atari). Not at all sure about the details
because it was a long time ago.
