The information contained within most of the produced .ini files I think is mirrored in the mameinfo.dat file from M.A.S.H., has been useful on many occasions for me concerning research for regressions and testing if, indeed, a certain bug was present since added or not. Knowing when it was added and also when it was renamed is useful in tracking specific set issues as it gets difficult to track some sets after over 19 years of setname changes and parent readjustments.
