Let’s be real, Lucas also directed ROTJ.

Are you on crack?

It’s commonly believed Lucas backseat directed much of the film, due to Richard Marquand’s shortcomings handling such a large cpmplex FX laden production. IIRC, Lucas directing some second unit sequences is documented. He was definitely on the set much more than he was on Empire.

He executively produced a number of films which I assume he had a lot of input into but he is not credited as the director for them either

The Wizard of Oz had five directors, but only one got screen credit. Gone With The Wind had three. And then there’s Poltergeist…
