Why Does SS7 Split Some Double Stars But Not Others Even With A Wider Separation?

I'm using SS 7Pro 7.1.3 (1060)

Why does SS split some double stars but not others even with a wider separation?

For example Sigma Cassiopeia does not split when zoomed in as far as possible.  It is 3.1" separation.  This is an obvious split in an 8" scope.

Zeta Aquarii is separated at 2.4" and is split when zooming in with SkySafari.  This is a tighter double in a telescope.

I have the star magnitude at maximum (no limit).

Am I missing a setting or is there a catalog that is not accurate?

    Perhaps Pedro Braganca can provide an insight to your inquiry.

    Thanks, Bruce!
