Here's something about Final Fantasy 1 that drives me nuts
EsperBot
There's a piece of music used in the game for the Chaos Shrine, as well as the Sunken Shrine where you fight the Kraken.

There's another piece of music used for when you're in the final dungeon, which is the CHaos Shrine 2000 years in the past.

Both of these tracks are certified bangers. But here's the thing.
EsperBot
THat first track, which plays in the CHaos Shrine and the SUnken Shrine, is called Chaos Shrine, which seems reasonable.
FF1 NES Music - Chaos Temple

WHereas the version that plays in the Chaos Shrine of the past, but not in the Sunken Shrine, is called....Sunken Shrine.
Final Fantasy I NES - Sunken Shrine

I have to assume that the Sunken Shrine song was originally written for the Sunken SHrine, and the Chaos Shrine song was originally written for the Chaos Shrine, and relatively late in development they decided to swap them

Probably wanted a unique theme for the endgame dungeon but didn't have time to make one
