I can see how one would take it that way. But I think it's often
(usually?) the case that the developers need more complete information
to replicate the bug, because replication is usually the first step in
debugging. Given the heterogeneous combinations of OSs, networks, etc
detailed information about the environment in which the bug occurs is
essential.

They could go through that dialog on the forum, but putting it in the
official bug database (bugs.slimdevices.com) ensures that the report
won't simply get lost in the forums.
