So what was the reason they closed it again? Seems like that's the most important part here and it's left out.

The fact that the most important part (reason for closing it) is left out makes it seem like it's just a bad bug report. The final linked comment seems to be Uber asking for steps to reproduce and then there's no follow up. If the bounty program is really a sham and they're closing out valid bugs, it seems like it should be simple to show a smoking gun here.
