So in this instance of Durham, there will be a clear difference between the 'Durham then West Auckland' display and the 'Durham' only display.
You could argue that it's no more confusing than now, because the displays show "Bishop Auckland then Tindale Crescent" (not a requirement currently as it isn't a split route, but shown like that as Tindale Crescent isn't really a well-known place!)
Technically, the X21 doesn't actually go to Tindale Crescent, it goes to St Helens Auckland. The only stop that's in Tindale Crescent is Watling Road Club on the northbound journey, and even that's debatable as it's the wrong side of the road!
Even still, the X21 doesn't go to Tindale Crescent, it goes to Tinddale Crescent as it's misspelled on the registration!

Probs be confusing at first but hopefully get better with time when people are used to the changes being made.
You're also forgetting the people that seem to think (and rightly so!) that the X21 isn't express, and stops at every stop, to then complain at the driver when it doesn't stop at their stop!
