(Why is this in Category: Tandy TRS-80?)
(No difference)

Super-cat query

I'm a bit confused as to why this is a sub-category of Category: Tandy TRS-80. None of the Tandy 1000 manuals I looked at (which I just added links to, in the article) make any reference to 'TRS-80'. None of the product announcements from Tandy that I looked at (e.g. here, here, here, here makes any reference to 'TRS-80' (or 'TRS80' or 'TRS 80').

It may be that you and some other people though of it as a 'TRS-80', but we take a pretty firm line here on deferring to what contemporaneous documentation from the original manufacturer says. (Which is why in Category:UNIBUS Asynchronous Serial Interfaces there is such a weird mix of capitalizations in the names; because that's the way DEC documentation did it. If I wasn't completely tired out I could remember other cases of what we called things 'back when' didn't match what I found in the original documentation when I looked - and the latter is used here in all cases.)
