I totally agree with you. We took this decision because those two categories generally added more noise than signal. One example: crowdfunded games include the backers in their special thanks, which adds hundreds (even thousands) of unwanted names, unrelated to the amount of work in the game. 1/n

For playtesters, the issue is we have some big outliers, with some games having dozens of (unpaid) playtesters that skews the credits. There are other issues of course, like publishers including all their staff in the credits of a game even though the team is ridiculously small. 2/n

Still, large publishers generally invest in larger projects (with larger teams), hence it's not so much a problem. Whereas for playtesters and special thanks, this relationship is not monotonic. 3/3
