Being the sole item member when i did not create the item nor am i assigned to the item

I am the author / creator of a board template.

I am the creator of teams that intentionally have no members as they are placeholders on the board template.

Ex Team “VP” exists to assign VP tasks to items on the template. A project starts and a VP is assigned to the project. The board for the project is created from the template and the team VP is replaced by the actual VP that is doing the tasks.

Some items and some sub items are being created where Monday is assigning me as the only item member and making me the owner of the item

Is this happening because the item or sub does not have an actual user (or users if the team had any) assigned to it?

This creates a lot of email to me as people make updates to the items. I cannot turn off Monday email to myself as i am legitimately the owner of some items.

thanks!
