Bug in "Filming & production" category not highlighted?

I have added "Production dates (January 1991 - March 1993)" for the video game "The 7th Guest":

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0162137

Yet in the main menu, the category "Filming & production" is not highlighted, as if no information has been provided. Is this a bug?

Thanks for your assistance.

Hi @Richard_J -

Thanks for your report and screen grabs.  I can see the Production Dates listed under the 'Filming & Production" section, and am not certain if the highlighting issue is due to a bug or is intentional.  I filed a ticket (#P161201562) for the appropriate team to take a look, as soon as we have further information we will update you on the status here.

Dear Michelle,

I have an inkling this 'bug' may be intentional, as this regards video games, which may not be considered as needing these categories. Well, this is certainly not true of production dates, but even filming dates and locations can be appropriate, as at least many games from the 1980s and the 1990s, like this 7th Guest, included FMV (full motion video) sequences, which were shot with actors at a certain time on a certain location, which may be listed somewhere. Then again, it could be a general bug.
