Hello,

The Gantt MspExport feature does not export those values at the moment.
The reason is our data model has no strict one-to-one mapping with them.
But if you need them to be provided now you can workaround them:

// set listener on Gantt construction step
const gantt = new Gantt({
    ---
    features : {
        mspExport : {
            listeners : {
                dataCollected : ({ data }) => {
                    data.DefaultStartTime = '08:00:00';
                    data.DefaultFinishTime = '17:00:00';
                }
            }
        }
    }
});

PS I've also made a feature request to support the values out of the box: https://github.com/bryntum/support/issues/8733
