I want to align e.g. left

etc. with right

How?
IIUC, the obvious Alignment Override can't do this because "The right side only supports exact matches, so you can only use references like $1, $2, etc and characters on the right. "
So I swapped sides and tried
(Both Align left file (or folder) and with right file (or folder) values end with a space character, left invisible by BC)
But as the pic shows, this fails.
PS The Help "Fill in the Align left file (or folder) and with right file (or folder) edits." is incorrect and misleading. There's only one edit and the two values are pattern and replacement respectively. But for the examples, this article would leave me with no clue as to the effect of these fields.
Also I think the labels Align left file (or folder) and with right file (or folder) are also unhelpful. Better would be for them to say what the fields actually do/are rather than what is hoped they'll achieve e.g. Left file/folder name pattern, Right file/folder name replacement.
