Welcome to first world problems. This pretty common depending what’s in there contract. Also this seen the movie industry and nobody has been winning about this! Hinting the uncredited information on IMDB.

Also here is small snipped that can be found when one uses google:

“ The early industry had taken efforts to prevent writers from unionizing. Although the SWG was formed in 1933, it encountered resistance until May 1941, when it signed a deal with the studios that gave the Guild, among other rights, the final say on writing credits. The agreement was seen as weak, as it mostly covered the lowest paid writers, and credits were still unfairly given in the compulsory collaboration era when studios employed large numbers of independent writers on projects; at this point, the need for writers to have contributed 33 percent of the final script had been established, which left many out of credits on productions written by committee. The best paid writers, on the other hand, had always been respected and could often elect to work alone because of their status.”

Let’s move on from 1st world problems!
