I appreciate the bug reports, believe me.

The issue is which of the limited developer resources get put onto
which bugs.

A developer who does this for fun is going to prioritize to things
that are pleasant and interesting to work on, and also a good
effective use of their time.

So people prioritize.

Therefore, my point is, the net result is that user have a direct
influence on which bugs get worked on with the highest priority and
thus get fixed faster.  And those are the ones that have the most
information available, and in particular bisec results when
appropriate.
