When I use the -h option for pidstat, a # column is added at the left side of the output table. I assume that column is supposed to supply an index for each process. However, pidstat does not actually populate any values in this column, leaving whitespace to the left of the Time column values. If I try to parse this data using another program (in my case, awk), the data winds up being shifted to the left by one column.
I can add terminal snippets later for reference - I can't access GitHub from my Linux machine at the moment.

The hash sign at the beginning of the header line is not intended to be considered as a column per se, but as a mark indicating that this line is not a line of statistics but a header line (displaying the various fields names).
It has the same meaning as the hash sign in, e.g., a shell script (the text which follows is a comment), making it easy to remove this line with a command like grep -v ^#
