Hmmm.  My 3.0B1 came with nothing of the sort, and the About box is
just a picture (fancier than the old beach ball, more like the drawing
on the cover of MPW manuals).  Maybe you developers got an earlier (or
a later) version of MPW 3 ...

Also while the SADE About box takes some amount of extra code, there
is no ancillary tool to run that either, that I could see.
