As for type moon, i don't think they have done anything with H-content for quite a while now. Even their latest work Mahoutsukai no Yoru is an all ages game.
Most likely because they don't need to make eroge because of their popularity (similar to Circus with D.C. 3 and Key with Rewrite and Clannad)
edit: i forgot to mention that those 3 companies became more widely popular because their eroge attracted a wider audience because they had a succesfull eroge adaptation in the form of an all ages anime. Regardless how many fans think that tsukihime anime was horrid, it did sell over 12k dvd's.

At least the better eroges try to make the h-content work within a good narrative (like YnS did), and I think the seiyuus still deserve credit for that. Too bad about that prejudice, though . . .

You seem to forget that eroges are an even more niche market than animes. While some of those fanservice animes are quite suggestive, there are no actual on screen sex scenes in it with the minor exception being YnS.
I don't see your point here.
You said it yourself that there is a prejudice for eroge and it's looked down, why would you want the seiyuu's to get more credit for something that is even less accepted than "otaku" anime.
