The whole game was broadcasted through satellite, the only copies would either be in Japanese satellaviews (If those had storage), or at Nintendo themselves (If they kept a copy), so it's not surprising that a vhs was the only way
This is honestly incredible work being done for preservation. As usual, it's being done by fans and not Nintendo. It's a travesty that Nintendo can't be bothered to do more than the bare minimum and put the Satellaview content on SNES NSO.

So they found some VHS tapes of the missing levels but not the levels themselves?
