it's probably just breaking their automated tools

a bunch of these Sega ROMs intentionally have the same CRC, but different SHA1 (it's likely done as a security measure on the original system)

likely they're being lazy and only checking the CRC, not the SHA1, meaning yes, they'll be distributing bad files.
