Just a note from IB about stock options format - I don't think this addresses the root issue that SC Engineering mentioned about the 'true correct format' mentioned in post #9, insofar as it must be structured in requests via programming, but here's what an IB tech agent told me:

"Please note for US and CA Stock Options, Interactive Brokers 'localSymbol' abides by the Option Symbology Initiative which already created a unified system. For details please reference the following web page: https://ibkr.info/article/972 "
