6.0 is pretty serious according to the rubric. Are there some worse ones? Yes Google is acting obnoxious per your description. It makes no sense to me that they are balking about supplying some funds. They used to be fairly forthcoming with such support.

I can imagine a CI system for bug reports where you put in the test case and it gets run under the real software to confirm whether an error results, if one has been claimed. No error => invalid test case.
