plenty of them do. even workprints often have the screener-type messages, and as for the SMPTE timecode, a TC is actually MORE likely to have them than a screener (people who say "ha ha how do you get a timecode on a direct-from-film transfer" have no clue. the SMPTE is easily added during the telecining process, and any professional telecine machine will have this functionality. hell, i've got the ability to add an SMPTE signal on my svhs player.).

once again, for those constantly arguing about whether releases are TC's or screeners:
many of the "scene" classifications are not treated as such in the industry; there's a lot of overlap between catagories. most if not all workprints are also TC's; many TC's are also screeners, and vice versa. arguing about whether these guys' source is TC or SCR is pointless, since they're easily considered either one, or even both. that being the case, naturally they will call it whatever happens to be most convenient for them at the time.
what SHOULD be differentiated, however, but aren't, are SVHS TC's. these have potentially much better quality than the VHS variety, and IMO are more deserving of encode to SVCD than are the SVCD TS's we see all the time.
