Can anybody tell me what the extra piece of fabric that hangs down from the back of the neck on the inside is for and what it's called.

This has been puzzling me for years.

The facing. It’s there to keep the neckline from stretching and distorting.

Yep. Just so. Some facings are sewn down; some are not.
