Don't worry about blame, as long as you're not spewing hate in the
process. RSpec is far from perfect, and it's fine for you to report
problems here even if they end up being further down the stack. It's
useful for other RSpec users who might encounter the same problem, and
once we identify what the problem really is then it can be reported to
the proper place with more accuracy.

This is true of non-testing tools as well :)

Thanks for doing the research.
