Another way to look at this is: why are there so many failures, and what are we doing about that? The actual build breaks cause far more effort on the part of others total than a few mail messages. While an occasional failure is one thing, the tree being unbuildable for more than a few hours leads to other people making untested commits and a lack of ability to figure out which of those caused other problems.
