The credits on file are sourced from a hex dump of the game but include credits not found in the end credits (ie. the Engineer & Composer credits). Does anyone know where these credits are from?

I just checked Игги Друге's GDRI page and I don't see Composer & Engineer.

For some reason the approver asked to add those without a given source 🤔

Yeah, I saw that afterwards. I see that VGMPF credits Kazuki Muraoka as a 'Sound Designer' on the PCE release. They credit Miki Higashino on the ARC & NES (but not PCE) releases. They don't credit Yoshiaki Hatano on any version of Gradius, or even with any Music Composition credits at all.

So it seems like, if anything, only Kazuki Muraoka should be credited with an 'uncredited' role. Does that seem right?

Yeah.

Small correction: Kazuki Muraoka's role wasn't uncredited, he was just credited as H. Muraoka on this (and on Life Force).
