To elaborate a bit: the OP, while angry, produced both a detailed analysis *and* a PR. It's normal to be angry when an advertised feature doesn't work and it makes you lose hours of work (or, even, forces you to a wholesale redesign). Producing a detailed analysis and a PR is more than most people will ever do.
