Instead of putting a lot of time in such mostly useless debates (its not

When you're told that the feature can't be implemented because the widgetset
doesn't support it, you stop reporting.
Well, I have a different experience.
Most bugs I reported have all been fixed very quickly.
I had the same experience. That's why I discuss the matter, instead of
just dropping Lazarus.
I can believe that some bugs are indeed hard or impossible to fix, but this
should be a very small minority of the reported bugs.
When they're either missing features, or features implemented in an
unsatisfactory way, it' another matter. There's no single component I
have examined which doesn't show a lot of those problems. I had started
a list of the workarounds required to make LCL components behave like
Delphi counterpart (which means writing a lot of extra code whenever you
act on the component), but it's grown so big that I gave up, and
moreover the workaround doesn't work anymore with next revision, so you
have to start over again.
