So?

If you can't do a good report, why do you expect anybody to do
anything about it? I certainly can't just revert everything, based on
basically zero information.

You can't even tell why the bisect is so magically hard. Why is it
hard? What's so hard about "it works" vs "it doesn't work"? You give
no information about that _either_.

In other words, the onus is really on _you_ to give way better
information. "It doesn't work" isn't worth much, and will always be
ignored by developers.
