Subject: dbf_text vs. dbr_text

We are using epics v3.13.4. In db_access.h there are arrays containing the string representation of the dbr and dbf types. To me they appear inconsistent. Based on these definitions the dbf_text entries are incremented by one as compared to the dbr_text entries. What am I missing?
