Everything you listed are external chilling factors.
You would blame the person neutrally shining the flashlight for the obscene response of others? Simply identifying a list of tested drives should not cause fear for someone's wellbeing. Anything otherwise is a successful stifling of knowledge.

Absolutely not, you seem to have misread me there.
I'm saying I understand the bad results not being published to avoid the potential for the obscene response from others.
Publishing the good results is enough of a public service. More than required, in fact. The test results could have been kept to themselves as nothing is owed to the rest of us.
