I think the answer went something like this:
'the bolero' is a dance, set to a particular type of music, just like a tango is both a dance and a style of music. Whoever was responsible for the credits probably thought because it sounds like Ravel's Boléro (it's a bolero after all), it must be Ravel's Bolero. How it affects royalties, I don't know.
