Are you happy to accept corrupt PDFs being generated by ABBYY, a company that does nothing but write software to produce PDFs and yet hasn’t even commented, let alone maintained their software?

Do you think ABBYY is even aware if the issue?

It seems like you expect Apple to test everyone else’s software, and make workarounds for their bugs.

Regardless of Apple’s scale and resources, this is obivously unreasonable.

Also you say: “That's all there is to it for me as an end user” as if you didn’t understand anything about the complexities of software development, but reading your comments on other topics, you are obviously skilled in the art. You are not ‘just an end user’ who doesn’t understand the complexities.
