This. There doesn't seem to be a pricepoint which effective for getting both help, and information back inside Borgs (of all kinds) to actually effect change.
I had a problem at work with Microsoft X.509 certificate management. I even found the reasonably capable, actual decision-making person who did X.509 at a conference, and he was pretty clear: nothing I said to him there, or in any other forum was going to change pace inside the company on the problem at hand. (he did point out it affected the DoD so I was somewhat assured it was going to get fixed)
OTOH when it was pointed out how badly Microsofts TCP implementation behaved, they did make changes. So "it depends"
