Shouldn't this album be considered as Works, given only 1/4 of its contents come from video games?

I've always been under the opinion that it counts as Official even if it has just one track from a video game, though I know that others here have a different opinion and we haven't been doing it that way consistently.

Then Hamauzu's Vielen Dank should be considered Official as well, since half of it is related to video games. It would just be a matter of consistency, I reckon.

Vielen Dank even more so considering it was published by the SQEX record label. But I'd personally call it half and half. Isn't it just possible to call it original and solo together (maybe while just displaying one colour instead of a strange aqua)? A bit like how live event and arrangement can be classified together?
