As do I.

> In the three years since I filed the bug report, I received no response whatsoever from Apple… until a couple of weeks ago, when Apple asked me to “verify” the issue with macOS 26.4 beta 4 and update my bug report.

The author is extremely lucky to even get a response. I’ve filed several issue reports (as an end user, not as a developer) on Feedback Assistant over the years. Not only do the issues not get fixed, but there’s nary a response or any indication that anyone has looked or is planning to look at it. Apple does not even bother to close my issue reports. They just stay open.

Sometimes, some issues may get fixed. But no notice of the fix being done. I’d never know at all.

So yes, I certainly do plead insanity.
