Bug Description
Evergreen master
In using the simplified pull list, a staff member noticed that the titles shown/printed in the Simplified Pull List only lists the first part of the title entry. This was especially problematic for identifying unique records where the subtitle held important information. An example was like DVD series where the subtitle contained the season number.
It would appear that the current interface is using the title from simple record. The proposed change would be to use a fuller title string similar to ones from previous hold pull list interfaces like the alternate print strategy.

reporter. super_simple_ record uses only the 245a for the title.
I'm wondering if the best approach to addressing this is to expand the title to include subfield p and n to include things like "Season 1".
Or should there be a new reporter. super_simple_ record field that contains that info? Something like title_np. So that the behavior of the title field doesn't change.
I would rather just have one title field, but there may be good reasons not to change how it behaves.
Examples: Here are some examples of records that are difficult to identify from the current simplified holds list because there are many titles with the same 245a. Staff currently have to compare barcodes which takes extra time, or look up the title first in the staff client and make a note on the list.

Outside of the simplified pull list, I've found that I often need to pull in the 245 n or p in other reports that go out to staff so they know which specific title the customer wanted, so fixing this would help out in many other reports.
