Why is the composition of 1.3 Persona -monologue- and 1.33 Persona -Termination- credited to Aoki when the song "Persona" has always been credited to Meguro in every other game it's been in?

Has anyone found out why those discrepancies exist?

"Persona" first appears in P1 OST and (per liner notes) Meguro did compose it.

In P1 2nd OST it appears again (1.37) credited to Meguro. However the "opening" (3.01), credited to Aoki, features some notes similar to the beginning of "Persona".

Maybe Meguro took this motif to make "Persona", so in an odd way Aoki can be credited as composer. That, or they simply messed up here, as P Q2 clearly uses Meguro's "Persona" (liner notes here reveal nothing).

Maybe Hidehito Aoki was the composer all along?

In P1's liner notes Meguro himself says he made it, so...

EDIT: from this interview Meguro reconfirms he made it, during training period even.

Could someone confirm if Hitoshi Sadakata is the lyricist of M-3.29, please?
