I've been having trouble finding a couple Challenge charts from DDRMAX2 and EXTREME, as some of them were easier than the Heavy chart and meant to be played in the context of an Oni course, but replaced by harder charts in modern releases, such as Max.(period).
At the same time, while browsing through DDR 1st-5th Mix simfiles, I noticed that 3rd Mix songs were recently having their UNISON charts being ported over.
That reminded me that 3rd Mix also introduced Edit Charts, and the console release of DDR 5th Mix has a DATA BANK which stores a collection of 3771 Edit Charts from songs of both current and previous releases, each one crediting the step artist who has provided a brief description to go along with their chart.
Apparently, these have already been ported over a long time ago, although they are in DWI format, and not synced to the audio found in current simfiles.

Considering that these charts have been provided in a playable manner in the factory software of official DDR games, would it make sense for these charts to be included in this website's Official Simfile repository as Edit Charts (including DATA BANK charts given the workload?) This could help preserve legacy Challenge charts and the courses that used them as well, such as Max.(period)'s EXTREME Challenge chart, which was used in the Legend Road Oni course for JP CS, but replaced in DDR 2014. Without these legacy charts being included in the simfiles, it's not possible to accurately replicate some courses, like the one previous mentioned, even though MadkaT182's Course Repository also includes console specific courses.
