I think the main reason for this is because they expect a C++/Python

What happens if they found a bug in C++ or Python?

The process is very similar to when they hit it in DMD:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51664
This is an anecdote, of course, but for perspective: this bug was known
for ~7 years before I posted the duplicate and it took another 5 years
from my report until it was fixed.
Note that the first answer I got was "I don't think [this report] is
valid". I guess it is easier to not blame the compiler if you are not
sure whether you understand the language definition correctly.
