Description
Shown above is a SMW hack that uses SA-1. Player Power-Up address is supposed to be at 0x020019 (SA-1 offsets the ram by 0x020000 from where it would be in the base game) but instead the region is filled with 0x60. 0x02010b is Level ID and that shows correctly and matches with the vanilla SMW, along with the rest of my notes.

Research direction
The report names no files, entry points, or tests. Reproduce it with the linked Super Mario World SA-1 hack and inspect how SA-1 addresses 0x020000-0x0200ff are exposed, comparing the incorrect 0x020019 value with the correctly shown 0x02010b value. Done means the affected address range reports the expected game data.
