It would be nice if that could be changed. Seems unnecessary and messy

It's a feature and it's intentional.
You're using the "takes" recording mode, that adds new takes to the 1st recorded item as additional audio streams. All the streams are split in the same spot because there's only a single item (just with multiple audio streams for each take).
Browse the "Reaper take system" and the "takes system sucks" threads for details. Reaper also has a "normal" recording mode where every new "take" is printed as a single normal item.
Read the threads. Pick your battles.
