We show "writers" for works on searches, but that's just set to all artist-work rels. That includes publishers and dedicatees, which don't really fit: https://beta.musicbrainz.org/relationships/artist-work
An option might be to show only stuff under the "composition" header (but then we might want to move "previous attribution" there since that seems useful to show for searches).
In addition to inline search, the work writers are also shown in works lists (both search results and standard work tables), where the change to only have actual writers shown would also make sense to me.
Final choice:
As mentioned in the comments below / discussed on IRC, we decided to remove non-writers from the writers lists, but because in several cases (like an artist works page, or a search for works using artist: or arid works would be listed that would now seem unrelated to the artist in question, we are adding the other artist rels under an "Other artists" column there. We'll skip listing those at all where they don't seem useful (ISWCs with multiple works report) and where they just take very limited space for little gain (inline search).
