    The sort of folks who would worry about that very last 1% are the
    sort of people that would more than likely hit these BUGs as they're
    really stressing things.

    Losing a bunch of potential reports (and possibly doing bad things),
    in the name of a 1% performance boost doesn't sound too productive to me.
