There's some nice examples of something I've noticed - where you have a very clear issue and people pick away at stuff that's orthogonal to the issue and won't resolve anything. The question is clear, "gimme gimme gimme" is printed to stderr, it's not expected and we'd like to know why ... but there's comments like:
- "Why does your test script call man where it should fail?"
- "why do you need to do a 'man -w' every minutes?"
I get that there's a bit of mistrust in some things users report so in some cases we as developers need to be careful to establish the user's actual intent or whether they're describing their issue correctly. But this isn't one of those cases.
