Which Development Stage Sliders need Design skill or Tech Skill?

Hi I looked through the guides, but didnt find anywhere which specific development stage sliders need design skill and which need tech skill. Some are obvious like story/quest would be design im guessing. But some like graphics seem like they could be both. Can someone break down the 9 development sliders for me with the correct matching skill? Thank you!!!

Engine = 80% Tech - 20% Design
Gameplay = 80% Design - 20% Tech
Story/Quest = 80% Design - 20% Tech

Dialogue = 90% Design - 10% Tech
Level Design = 60% Tech - 40% Design
A.I. = 80% Tech - 20% Design

World Design = 60% Design - 40% Tech
Graphics = 50% Tech - 50% Design
Sound = 60% Design - 40% Tech

Essentially as far as I know, you only need 1 Tech Specialist and 1 Design Specialist, to open R&D and Hardware Lab and train more of your staff as either Tech or Design specialist does not do anything that increases game quality.
What does matter is that for AAA games you need 3 staff members trained in specific slider for it to be able to reach high score. Only need 3 because only 3 sliders are very important in the development stages

You Sir ROCK! Thank you!!!
