Makes sense - definitely does not seem worth the money and effort to try to track such things down one by one (nor does it seem valuable - any compound not present in the modern dictionaries is going to be questionable enough in the pronunciation that I wouldn't place much stock in the decision of any particular person you hired, unless it came from the original editors/publication, and even then I'd check it for reasonableness). I was just wondering if it was a bug in incorporating already existing data, which I now know it is not. Much rather you guys spend the effort developing new tools and licensing more dictionaries (the point of hydcd is not really to get pronunciations of compound words anyway)
One more thing I noticed today: I think there might be something odd going in with radicals and simplified/traditional conversion - 言 in hydcd shows a simplified version of 讠 (so, for example, if you look 言, the integrated entries for all other dictionaries are separated from the results from HYDCD in a separate tab)
