When i inspect any element, i get both pad templates and pads printed.
But what exactly is the difference between these two?
can't we just ignore printing pads, as it will be already covered in pad templates?

lets say for videorate element it displays
Pad Templates:
  SRC template: 'src'
    Availability: Always
    Capabilities:
      video/x-raw
      image/jpeg
      image/png

  SINK template: 'sink'
    Availability: Always
    Capabilities:
      video/x-raw
      image/jpeg
      image/png


Pads:
  SINK: 'sink'
    Pad Template: 'sink'
  SRC: 'src'
    Pad Template: 'src'

i already have the details about the pads in pad templates.
or is there any specific need to show both for specific elements?

Can someone please clarify, if i can just remove the printing of pads?
