> I'm sure if the "stinky users" have a support contract then someone will be happy to look at any kind of report

I'm sure you know that's not true. I'm sure you know that developers hate taking bug reports from users even when those users have support contracts.

The case being discussed here is LibreOffice. Yes in general that is also true, but non paying users don't contribute anything. If they paid at least there's an expectation of fixes. Or at least the money can be used to hire a separate support team.
