Misleading.
Dev requests a non-zero tip as sign of appreciation for fixing a rare and obscure bug in 6 hours, for a minority. For a tip over a certain threshold he offered to rework that existing fix (aka invest more time) to include it into the next stable/support release instead of in v-next.
(For the lazy people:He did exactly that after receiving a 75 USD gift certificate for Amazon)
Now, why is this title (to my non-native reading comprehension skills) negative, if patio11 is (again, and probably rightfully so) repeating his mantra of charging a higher rate in a sibling thread? 75 USD seems quite a good deal for 'someone works 6+ hours to fix a tricky bug that has a trivial workaround and is rare to begin with', right?
