onepage/billing.phtml required still displayed after removed.

I think something weird is happening at this line, still prints 'required' stars, after removing "*" and the required class

this code

     96                 <li class="fields">
     97                     <div class="field">
     98                         <label for="billing:postcode">+++<?php echo $this->__('Zip/Postal Code'); ?>---</label>
     99                         <div class="input-box">

generates this output on the website.

<label for="billing:postcode" class="required">+++Zip/Postal Code--- <span class="required">*</span></label>

I already restarted apache and php-fpm, does not look like a caching issue. If I add/remove '+++' and '---', the changes are directly visible.

v20.5.0.

Looks like this onepage checkout is a bit buggy anyway. After setting is_required to 0, you still get popups "Please enter the telephone number."

UPDATE eav_attribute SET is_required = 0 WHERE attribute_code = 'telephone';

if I change the label to billing:postcode2, the required is gone, so something is injecting it. Maybe this file was being updated from where the * where hardcoded to where functions would do this on the basis of some configuration somewhere, and they started 'testing' this with postalcode?
