It is only a courtesy if the evaluator is not interested in promoting more
widespread adoption of authentication.

For those evaluators who want to maximize adoption of authentication
(because authenticated identifiers are ones to which reputation can be
reliably attached and used in handling decisions) it is beneficial to the
evaluator to provide reports to all who solicit them, so as to ensure that
the report receivers can address shortcomings in their authentication
processes.

I believe that the evaluators wanting to promote more widespread adoption
of authentication far outnumber those who don't.
