I wonder if it's really hate for VFX people or that they just think so little of the cheap Indian labour they used to produce this to not even mention them in the credits.
Or maybe they just wanted to hide the fact that most of the VFX was produced in India (I assume from the names and DNEGs offices), not in the US?
It's much simpler than that. CG gruntwork (rotoscoping etc) is outsourced to studios in other countries filled with exploited artists. I doubt even those studios would have list of people and who worked on what. Generally names of project manager/team leads are given in such cases.
They are given, it's in the article and the studios website. For some reason, they just didn't end up in the final credits.
I doubt DNEG told Universal and Nolan to take the names from their website.
