For most projects, this is nothing more than an even higher barrier for users.

As a developer I would LOVE to have everyone submit a failing test or a PR rather than reporting issues but that's just not feasible. Most never will, because there's a learning curve they don't have time for - the language, the tooling, the product itself, Git/github/PRs, etc.

As the project maintainer, that's what I signed up for. It really sucks sometimes, but I'd rather sort through the junk and personally fix the issues people report than funnel everyone through hoops they likely won't spend time on and lose that valuable feedback entirely.
