I have seen this question with most vendors.

   What is the impact to your environment.  How critical is this to be fixed.

I think it helps them to triage the problem and put it in the queue where it 
will get the correct attention.

    Is this a SHOP DOWN or a Minor inconvenience.

I just got a reply to an SR asking for more information about the problem, then 
adding the text:

    Please also let me know what impact this issue has on your day
    to day business so we can understand the situation better.
    I look forward to your reply and clarification. Thanks!

Am I to infer that IBM no longer believes in repairing defects simply because 
it's the right thing to do?

This rather blurs the line between an SR and a requirement.
