I am aware of this, the khanda is supposed to represent something.

Will need to check proof.

The Khandey are supposed to separate the Arth of the actual line and other info like the Uthaanaka. For example, in the Shabad ਪਹਿਲਪੁਰਸਾਬਿਰਾ॥, it starts off with the Uthaanaka (Bhagat Namdev Ji asking his Guru Gian Dev Ji about how the world was created, etc). Afterwards, you get the Arth of the verses. But in the Arth, there are a few places that need clarification as to who is talking (Namdev or Giandev), so those are also separated with Khandey.

I don't believe the original Faridkot Teeka has these Khandey and assume they were added in the data somewhere along the way to show this information.
