Playlist Genres Removed

Playlist Genres Removed

My Question or Issue

I noticed in the WebAPI Documentation reference under Get Playlist that one of the response fields was genres but when querying a playlist, there never seemed to be any genres. Have genres been removed from the response object?

 

Here's some I have checked:

You can ony get the genres from artists with Get (Top) Artist(s) and a Player endpoint. They removed them from other endpoints a long while ago.
