That's subjective - I would much rather spend a few minutes sorting out the 82 bad ones than miss 9 good reports. (Actually, I would much rather have 18 good reports and spend several minutes trying to see if there's anything of value in the 82 bad ones: see for instance the high-school kid who found the Apple FaceTime vulnerability and who couldn't figure out how to report it.)
One of the principles of the Debian Social Contract reads:
We will not hide problems. We will keep our entire bug report database open for public view at all times. Reports that people file online will promptly become visible to others.
Dissuading people from filing bug reports feels like it's not in the spirit of this principle. You're basically hiding problems because you don't think the problem reporter is worthy.
