I pulled Artists and releases json data from http://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/data/json-dumps/. After decompressing and extracting the data, I have noticed that all the genres field are empty arrays for all artists and releases in Json data. Is this intended ( “genres”:[])?
Files pulled:

http://ftp.musicbrainz.org/pub/musicbrainz/data/json-dumps/20220716-001001/release.tar.xz
I believe the intention is to include the genres arrays genres as the key is present but empty in the JSON release dump.
If this is intended, is there any suggestion on where to get this genres data for Artist and Releases and how to add/join this data to this json.
