The other devices identified are not fictitious, they just happen to be interfaces that something on the computer is presenting. It may not always be what you expect. They might be filter drivers, it might be the multiple interfaces an actual hardware device could present, it could be virtual devices that Windows uses, they could be headphones, portable drives, webcams etc. At the end of the day, the results there are what responds to the specific API calls being made to identify interface devices (human or not).
There is no need to remove them, and it is fairly pointless as the APIs will be queried again the next time Inner Space starts and it will put the entries back in if they are not already there.
The Edit Input Device menu item is something that should be removed from the toolkit as it is not fully functional and if you knew the correct values to use it, then we probably wouldn't be exchanging these communications (you'd be far too smart to be dealing with the likes of me). Essentially it seemed like a good idea, and then the reality of the normal user actually knowing the technical detail that is required, or even being able to follow the complex instruction to enter the info determined that it not worth pursuing further.
