I was not having an issue with nobody providing a solution right away.
I was bothered about the problem not getting registered at all, even
after I provided a set of simplified relevant test cases.

I was not successful tracking this to the respective C++ code paths in
the involved class functions.  So I reported how far I got.

How nice or not nice someone is might very well direct the resources
people are willing to spend on fixing a particular bug.  But merely
registering the bug should not count towards being pleasant to me in
particular.  In fact, it might eventually save someone nicer
encountering the same problem the work of boiling it down to relevant
minimal test cases with differing behavior.

All the best
