questionId and questions id inside is not matching Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.QuestionInfo

I am trying to programatically do access the entries within the object Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.QuestionInfo. The objects are within the question id, I was expecting the variable this.questionId to match the question id(which is also the key of the nested object itself) within Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.QuestionInfo. But its not. Isn't it a bug? If not, why there are ambiguous names representing 2 different things.

PS: The questions are from Loop & Merge.

    I discovered today that the custom question IDs I created are not useful when trying to select piped text for selected choices (eg. I am not able to use my custom question ID). Qualtrics still expects you to remember and use the internal QID that Qualtrics assigned to the question originally (which you can not longer see if you customize the question IDs). This is disappointing.
