You can look at this the other way and wonder if there is anyone
who cares if the distribution contains things that make people
whine unnecessarily.

By the time someone has encountered the problem it is too late
for them - those are the people who are concerned about helping
others avoid the issue.
So, since you are one of those complaining and claim to want to help
others, then put your action where your mouth is and file the bugzilla.
I for one do not like people who whine but refuse to take action to
better what they are complaining about.
