Well, that pretty much summarizes the fact that you do not want to file
bugs, and the reasons why. I (and other people, judging by the thread)
think you should, but it is your right not to file any bugs if you don't
feel inclined to do that by whatever reasons you have.
That being explained, what exactly do you want to achieve with this thread?
