Has anyone else noticed the file layout of the ANH blu-ray.

It's kind of interesting (as much as a file layout can be, at least), that the film is encoded entirely in one m2ts, except for the intro. Everything up through the crawl, until the final frame of the flyover, is in a separate file.

Is there an obvious reason they might have done that? Or is it possible that they were considering an alternatively branched crawl? Not quite sure what the point would have been for the latter, sticking the 1977 crawl on a screwy version of the film.

Just thought it was kind of interesting that an important branching/splicing point for both fan editing and the film's history was utilized for some reason here.

Maybe crawls for different languages? I can't remember if the alien subtitles are still on the picture, though, if they were changed to "regular" subtitles, the crawl would be the only thing that they would need to change for a different dub.
