Saying that these problems look like bug reports is dismissive of the depth of the problems. Stopping development of products and removing access to features isn't unintentional, and a lot of people have already complained about each of these problems over the years. Andy's article is making a larger point that what has happened to these products is part of a pattern, that Google is not being as responsible in stewarding its information as its mission statement said it would try to be.

> Saying that these problems look like bug reports is dismissive of the depth of the problems. Personally I completely disagree with your priorities. I think a bug report is far more valuable, since people can act on bug reports and make things better, while I would not anticipate any meaningful action as a result of speculation about mission statements.

  That makes me wonder why the Chromium bugtracker appears to effectively be a black hole, if the bug reports are so "valuable". I don't think I've ever gotten a single response to my CSS calculation bug report.
