Now that my screenshots are properly sorted, it seems that the screenshots from 2015 to 2018 didn't have the "suffix". My screenshots from Jan 2019 have them! Not sure if the change was made in the game client, or something related to a change in my computer/OS.

Square may have added it for people who used PrintScreen for active time events :-D Thanks a lot for the heads up, I only started playing early last year, so I wouldn't have seen it.
