There certainly have been exceptions to that rule.  The maintainer of

Joey even *try* to understand every security bug?)  Repeated attempts to
communicate this have been met with silence.

I disagree that convincing the security team of the severity of a bug is
unreasonable. I also disagree with the characterization that much effort
has been put into describing the bug.
