You've convinced yourself that asking for a sysdiagnose is only ever used as a stalling tactic by Apple. There's not much I can say that will change your mind.
A minimal reproduction is great in a bug report but it's still not a complete in-situ snapshot of the machine.
I didn’t say sysdiagnose is only used as a stalling tactic. It may be useful if the reporter’s minimal reproducer doesn’t reproduce. But requiring it indiscriminately is definitely a stalling tactic.
