I'm not sure that this is necessarily true.
In your example about lunar2et and most other machines in the softlist, if you execute *mame64 psj lunar2et* it loads the game without any kind of crash and the same goes for other CD related machines as well when softlist loading.
Although the more crash cases that are caught, reported and fixed are always a good thing. Thanks for your efforts.
