The worst example I ever experienced was finding an actual flaw within some software with Trac as a version control system - somehow DD-WRT comes to mind - and I submitted a bug report with full reproducibility workflow and everything I could imagine. Essentially, the platinum standard for submitting a bug report in software development.

It was immediately rejected.

The reasoning? “Did not identify the relevant code in which the error occurred”.

Like… WTF????

Edit: confirmed as DD-WRT. I’ve never submitted another bug report to them again. And I’ve submitted hundreds of reports to other projects all over.
